Oh! And I swapped out my brown Day Rider for a black one. I was going to get a Cross Country, but it turns out it is a one piece saddle with a faux split between the rider and the pillion!

Pics?After being driven crazy by a black caliper on the rear and chrome calipers on the front ... bye bye chrome calipers! I also took the opportunity to black out the ignition coil covers and intake covers.
Nice, it that matte powder coat?
Duplicolor Ceramic for high heat. Claimed as gloss, but definitely sat down as more of a satin to a matte. If I do it over again, I'd use the Duplicolor Caliper paint that I used on the calipers --it has a nice smooth, satiny sheen to it.Nice, it that matte powder coat?
What. What version do you have? Mine are both chrome.After being driven crazy by a black caliper on the rear and chrome calipers on the front ... bye bye chrome calipers! I also took the opportunity to black out the ignition coil covers and intake covers.
Classic. I guess BM assumed it would not bother anyone?What. What version do you have? Mine are both chrome.
I think they assumed most people would leave the bags on and therefore wouldn’t notice the black caliper at the rear. It would have driven me mad tbh if I’d bought a classicClassic. I guess BM assumed it would not bother anyone?
I think these look great on the chrome heads. May I ask the cost and can they be bought at any BMW bike parts department?I just received my RSD breastplate. I'll install it this afternoon and post another photo.

Go on the BMW Motorrad site and you can see them on the BMW R18, Build Your Own, Configurator. You'd have to check availability and price on line or with your dealer.I think these look great on the chrome heads. May I ask the cost and can they be bought at any BMW bike parts department?

Here are some plain ones that could be moddedanyone one know where I can buy this BMW plaque to replace the 1800cc plaque ?

Looks great. I love these bikes and the variations. Curious as to why you chose different ‘blacks’ and not black storm metallic across the board.
