A beautiful and magnificent piece of machinery 😎

Great video. FYI, you can adjust the position of the gear shift lever, like any other bike, it's on a spline. The dealer may have set it too low (making it hard to get your foot under it). Some of those have the heel toe shifter too.

@@TheForeigner68 Mine has a heel shifter.

[@lexburen5932]

it is made to shift up with your heel and down with your toe.

If ypu don't like the vibration do 53 in 6 th instead of 4th lol

[@aarondods7001]

easy to maneuver, cornering good but top heavy? how does that work?

[@duosable]

Would you mind let us know your height? I am hoping the wind noise won't be that bad for shorter riders.

Wow, that is a monster.....

Let see how successful it will be in North America. From my side original R18 is very stylish

Bike like this should be automatic. Like a 7 series😎

Why wear a backpack when the bike has saddlebags?

[@BayernForeverFCB]

Because this bloke has no idea.

I got one of these R18B and they are the best bike I had. Much better than the Harley. BTW... every bike vibrates if you are in the wrong gear. Top heavy?? Those bikes do actually have a very low gravity that's why the handling is amazing. Maybe just stick with reviewing scooters because you haven't much clue about riding and reviewing proper bikes.

Everyone told BMW that this would be a sales flop in the USA but those Germans are nothing if not stubborn. They are stacking up at BMW dealerships in the USA and when I see someone riding one I have to laugh.
