What did you do to your R18 today?

Finally gave in and bought the leg rests. Don't like covering up the jugs but they are functional.

Re: your little custom 1800cc CF piece: Is that some sort of air scoop??

Yes... I've posted about it a few pages back, and over on the "R18 Louvered Performance Plates" thread.

How many of you have upgraded the stock horn to a 100 db horn from Hornig?
It wasn't expensive and now the bike speaks with authority!
No more feep, feep horn.

Which is why I NEARLY replaced mine… but won’t bother.

Changed mine to a car horn. There's a thread about this.

$600 for Amazon El Cheapo flooring 17' x 17' + 4' x 11'. I used the Race Deck design tool to figure out the number of Black and Grey tiles I should order

~$300 Home Depot delivery: 20 pieces of 8' x 26" galvanized corrugated panels, associated J - Channel pieces and three boxes of 50 metal roofing screws.

Definitely cleaned up my garage work space.. wife wants to know why I didn't do this 25 years ago... "I don't think these floor tiles were available back then" was my response

 

[HUNTS]

I think for my next ride or 2, I might take the bags (and fittings) off and ride it a little more stripped down… only just because.

 

[emgarciax]

I like them bags...

So today I fitted the engraved coin one the battery symbol


2nd thing I did was install the 100db Hornig horn. Excellent sound.

Also when engaging reverse my R would flash and not engage reverse when pushing the starter.
I had done some fiddling with the wiring for some accessories and had read somewhere that it could be fuse related. So pulled up the fuse info and decided to check the fuses.

First fuse I pulled was #4 the 15 amp. It was toast. Now I had no other issues only the flashing R and reverse not activating.

Replaced it and R stopped flashing and reverse now working.
