R18 TC Auxiliary Lights & Winglet Deflectors

 2022 R18 Model-B
R18 TC Auxiliary Lights & Winglet Deflectors
COST:
• The project will cost approximately $1,200 in BMW OEM parts

No ERROR Codes:
• This DIY utilizes the existing 12V Accessory Outlet, with a maximum of 5A which doesn’t generate
any error codes. The OEM BMW Auxiliary Lights are LED, which generate less than 1A of current;
the Accessory Outlet is powered by Fuse No. 3 (15A) which is collocated with the 50A main fuse
located behind the Right-Hand side panel.

Extra Considerations:
• The Fork Sleeve Caps for the Model-B are different from the TC Fork Sleeve Caps; the Model-B
CAPS support the Leading Directional Lights. I swapped the Model-B caps by cutting them away vs
disassembling the entire triple tree fork assembly; I used a narrow blade to cut the newly
purchased TC Caps and installed them into place without disassembling the triple tree.
ADD the following:
