  • My bike is in for a recall and I've been given an R18 Transcontinental as a courtesy bike. What's it all about?

    The way things are going we are having to get our enjoyment from riding at much lower speeds nowadays and focusing on the journey more than the dynamic ability.

    I ride a r1200rt mainly with wife as pillion, fancy one of these for European touring but the weight from sidestand to upright puts me off as I'm 5'8" and medium build!

    GREAT VIDEO! Did you ever take it out of Rain Mode and Put it in Rock?

      Thank you.
      I did. Tried all the modes when the weather cheered up a bit. Rick certainly made it more snappy but I didn’t put it through its paces as it only had 130 miles on the clock when I returned it. I can’t bring myself to treat a new machine like that.

      Brilliant video! Appreciate giving the bike a fair review. This bike is turning heads in the US. It’s U$S 10,000+ less than a fully spec’d out Harley. Cheers mate!

      @@sebastiant.7054 Thanks man, I appreciate the comments.
      The bike is great in its own way but I don't feel it's suited to the UK. Blasting across Europe or the USA will have it in its element for sure.
      that's a big difference in price over the Harley too, goodness those things are expensive!
