BMW R 18 Transcontinental Test 2021 - Review of the most powerful touring boxer of all time!

[@stevoone342]

As a new owner of a R18 Transcontinental, coming of a K1600GA. I’ve been blown away by the R18 in a massively Positive way, one of the keys of this bike is to treat her as a cruiser Not as a sport or nimble bike, witch I’ve noticed a few big Reviews / Vlogers doing witch will only get the Wong end of the stick. But this type of bike isn’t for Everyone. I’ve found my ridding style suites her and the looks are amazing especially the detail. Also be aware if you own one you will find a lot of people will look at her. I’ve found the Engine so far amazing but can be smooth on the cruse or shaking / Rumble with caricature when you whant. The Toque from the engine is something else. Cons she is expensive BUT compared to equally equipped Harley Davidson she is a lot Cheeper in comparison. Also BMW service is First class and plenty of them about if I where to have an issue.

The R18 will be a sales flop like the Yamaha Transcontinental! Read Robert Simmons review on the R18 and why BMW missed the mark. Back to the drawing board for this mess of a bike!
