Aftermarket Lights

[Gary Sutton]

I’ve recently added some aftermarket lights to my R18 Bobber and like so many others had issues with the CanBus system.. I’m Yorkshire Man and therefore wanted to do things as economically as possible and so came up with a way of fooling CanBus.. please see images.. I think that it’s fairly self explanatory but I utilised the old lights within the circuit and bagged them on my rack! I know that there are better fixes on the market costing upwards of £400 but this one worked for me!

On a side note the BMW emblem on the side panel would drive my ocd

Bettah!!!!!

Lóve the reverse gear shifter btw. Same on mine and it adds such a cool feel. Adds even more than the cool look.

ah and I forgot to mention it is also a proper R5 homage as that had foot change ánd a hand gear lever.

A load resistor would have worked as well ... but I like your version too . I use Kellerman 'Bullet 1000's' and they have just the right resistance not to trigger a fault ....
