We discuss the main issues that people have expressed in the comments on our various BMW R 18 videos.
The Ol’ Man has been in terrible pain and we talk about this too. Unfortunately, due to this, the Harley-Davidson Pan America testride day at the Experience Centre in Wales had to be cancelled, because he was simply unable to walk – let alone ride. That was the video we had intended to upload, but apologies, that isn’t happening now.
The BMW R18 cruiser motorcycle with the 1800 cc boxer engine is a motorcycle people love to love; and love to hate! Just read the comments we will inevitably get below! There are a few major barriers for some, that prevent them buying this motorbike, and we discuss each, in detail.

We had the ZEN L GPS Motorcycle and Scooter Tracker, which is easy to install and can be used for other valuables too! It runs on a rechargeable battery or you can opt for the adapter kit to connect it to your motorcycle battery if you prefer.
Receive notifications to your phone with the FREE Beepings App, in case of suspicious movement thanks to the vibration sensor and define perimeters to be alerted in case of entry or exit.
Wherever you are, access to your GPS position & tracking history through the application’s user-friendly interface.
You can offer an access to your geolocation and the other features of your trackers to anyone you want, and also send an SOS message from your trackers.
The ZEN L GPS tracker works in all circumstances thanks to Sigfox and its European coverage. Its functioning will never be altered because it has an anti-jamming system and it can not be detached from the asset equipped with the anti-pullout support provided. Please check coverage in your area before purchasing as some remote areas are not fully covered.

    Been riding the R 18 Bagger for just over a year now. Came from a Triumph Rocket Touring. The bike is brilliant, but my biggest issue is the lack of any real customizing possibilities. No OEM spotlights for the front crash-bars. No BMW own sissy bar, infant nearly no customizing parts from BMW. Wunderlich in Germany is the only company doing anything in this segment. I chose the BMW over a Harley because I wanted to be different, am now being punished for my choice by BMW in them not offering anything to make my bike a little bit special 🤮

    I've never been attracted to huge bikes but this one, with that massive engine block, captures my heart.
    I had an 80s bmw r65 and even that had a big 'ol engine block.

    Hi, first thanks for the great content and reviews. 
    Don't usually do this bit but… if you still have the rash you need a dermatology referral. You probably need a biopsy. It is impossible to diagnose without a full history plus review and your GP may well have all in hand, if not, do push for a referral as there a several skin conditions (some rare that your GP is unlikely to have come across) that would be improved with earlier intervention. Eczema and psoriasis can be painful but not really like your symptoms and also you would have had the symptoms for sometime prior to acute 'flare'. Shingles is unlikely as follows the nerve endings and usually presents as a line of rash and blisters.Skin infection is possible but with that much pain I would have expected to see you more systemically unwell.
    Please ignore all the diet stuff its a bit like homeopathy…. nonsense (apart from the the placebo effect, yes its a thing!)😄
    I know there are true food allergies out there and these need careful diets and handling, but this when you go through a full allergy screen with a specialist.
    Anyway hope things improving.

    All the best…. oh and the BMW R18 nice review, bit out of my price range! Also I think its looks are a bit marmite, I quite like it but others won't…. marmite and the bike. Cheers
