outer box was sealed when I got it with no damage. The seams of the black box have some splits , I assume because of the weight of the book inside during shipping. I did not try to fix. Nothing in the welcome box was was used and the book remains sealed as from factory. I went back to Harley so...
I’m 5’11” with 31” inseam . The TC windshield top was right in sight line . I tried the lower bagger shield , it looked way cooler, sight line interference was gone but it created a little buffeting on my 1/2 helmet so I went back . For under 200 you could see if it works for you
used for 50 miles. Will ship double boxed, $150 plus $40 freight anywhere in continental USA .Does not come with rubber grommets but ones off the other windscreen can be used. I put it on my R18 Transcontinental and realized I preferred the taller windscreen after the first ride.
Don't know if I said this in a earlier post but I did end up getting a 2022 Goldwing DCT Tour which now has about 2600 miles on it. You are correct lots of plastic. The bad news lots of plastic the good news lots of plastic. During service the dealer put some scratches in the side of the...
I agree as I just purchased a 2022 Goldwing Tour DCT and I don’t think you could ask for another feature on a long distance touring bike . I put the 2022 BMW Transcontinental up for sale and haven’t ridden it after getting the Wing until today. Holy crap is the Transcontinental fun to ride . I...
It’s wicked fun to ride but I got carried away buying stuff after I sold my business and retired , which included motorcycles and automobiles. I have a souped up Harley Road King , this 2022 Transcontinental and a 2022 Honda Gold Wing . One has to go . Harleys I’ve had all my adult life and Gold...
I was pretty sure the dealer told me the Transcontinental came with a 2 year subscription ( that did seem long) . XM radio just shut off the XM and told me it was three months? I cannot find anywhere and I have reached out to Motorrad with no response what it is supposed to be. Anyone know?
I had BMW service at 800 mile now at 2300 . The oil level at best only ever touched the bottom line. I added about 1/2 liter , too much now overful. I drained out what looks to be little less than 1/4 liter, now in the middle of sight glass.
2022 R18 Transcontinental . when on jiffy stand could not see oil . On blocks to put bike straight up and down barely above bottom red line. I put in about 1/2 quart went for a ride. On jiffy stand 3/4 up the red circle. Put jiffy stand back on blocks to have bike straight now oil above sight...
There was a slight redesign for the Gold Wing in 2021 whereas the riders seat moved rearward offering a more relaxed seating position. I was unable to ride a Gold Wing prior to order ( still waiting for it to come in ) as it was the middle of winter here in New England. My observations from...
Lloyd w1,
Thanks for the feedback. Yes I was concerned that the lack of feedback on the Gold Wing may become boring . The TC is super fun to ride and i will keep it at least for awhile. I just don't see me going cross country with no way to at least periodically extend my legs. My long distance...
You will find the BMW Transcontinental incredibly fun to ride. The engineers left some vibration in by design, it connects you to the bike and adds rider excitement. A similar driver excitement they engineer into their cars.
