When can we expect the R-18 shop manual to be released?

Yes I will be glad to see it! The mother ship has definitely let us down on this and accessories! I love my R18 but I swear I’d never have bought it when I did had I known BMW was gonna do us this way.Like the GS Service Manual it will probably only be available on DVD and in MS Windows format.

Clear pages, bright pictures and diagrams. No more greasy or torn pages, the end of dog eared books. Print pages as you need them, enlarge without distortion. Search the entire service manual in seconds. This DVD is published by BMW Motorcycles, and is updateable!www.shopbmwmotorcycle.com

$hit .. if that is the case .. I will never have one ... sighWe'll all have our Tesla Cyber Trucks charging in our driveways, before the R18 shop manual is published...
Thanks for that info!BMW AFAIK has NOT released a consumer R18 service manual and does not plan to either. I keep on hoping that our comrades in Eastern Europe "happen" upon an open BMW technician's station and "mistakenly" release a copy into the wild for everyone's benefit.
But, until something happens, a group of people have gotten together and started a website, https://www.r1800wiki.org/en/, which they are referring to as a "wiki" workshop manual of the R18. It's open-sourced, meaning that anyone can submit DIY content. I'm not affiliated, but the site's founder has posted on here before, and I thought it's a great idea to continue sharing around.
