BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

It is brilliant.

I use it on every ride.

It is indeed awful.

Mine never dropped out, as I used a dedicated android phone, BUT you can't edit routes on the fly...you have to take the phone out.

No thanks.

Have just purchased a good old Zumo XT2.

I owned an Explorer (same engine).


Quite top heavy, as the engine is tall, and mounted high in the frame.


The RT eats it.  MUCH better bike.

Hello all


I have tried the BMW touring screen and a CalSci model.


Both were too noisy.  Went back to the stocker.


Bought a Quiet Ride about 2 weeks ago.


Fantastic.  Very quiet, and you can ride with your visor up at 100 km/hr.


Highly recommended.
