test rode this 4 Sept 2024 front brake very weak, no feel from the lever, and it was nearly touching the handle bar !!! rear brake very difficult to apply pressure, downwards with floorboards fitted. the speedometer was built into the headlight, nice feature but its too flat, and difficult to see (its not pointed at the rider, its pointed at the sky) at 80 to 90 speed, the wind was very turbulent, and plenty of wind noise (same the crash helmet on the HD Sport Glide and similar speed, very quite and clean air, not turbulent) suspension was very hard at the rear, and not forgiving at all. NOT recommended by me!!
The big issue with the R18 is the leg room. If you have longer legs the knee angle is way to acute and you can't mount forward controls because the cylinders are in the way.
@@Alexx120493 Yes and no, I can see how it certainly limits you, but the Goldwing is one of the most successful and popular cruisers on Earth and presents the same issue.
9:47 floorboard scrape and it was not a tight left bend. No thanks. A novelty machine, and granted it’s an extremely well built one that oozes quality….but you’d soon tire of it. Probably why so many end up on the second hand market with low mileage. Depreciation is savage over the first few years. 🔥🥴
Sound quality is top notch. Amazing!
Looks great and sounds great as bmw should be ^^ have a great day everyone and be safe
Love these bike pov vids 👌
Nice motorcycle😲

I'd seriously consider this over a Harley Road King Special. Its cheaper and has a finer engine.
