BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Thanks for the confirmations!  I'll get some on order.

Other than the online auction site, there is no official distributor of Brembo pads in Canada, meaning the only reliable source is OEM from the dealer.  I'd prefer the original material, but balk at $100 per pair plus tax.  I've been using EBC on my older airheads with good results...

I tried taping 3rd pin from the bottom on the right when viewing the Nav from the rear.  It did not work.  The only change seemed to be the Nav no longer recognizes the ignition is off.

Currently mounted to helmet "Tele-Tubby' style.  Extra power supplied by power-bank/USB in the top pocket.  I have tried other postilions without success.  Low on the screen is a problem as the angle changes as the screen is raised (this would also affect the brackets...

Initially I was thrilled to find the VIRB remote control app included with my Nav VI.  Using it though proved frustrating and illogical.  I was concerned with the level of distraction caused each time I access the app, and wrote to Garmin support.  The team responded quic...

Having just completed a 4000km road-trip from Vancouver Island down to California, I thought it would be useful to post a fuller review of the Nav VI.  Firstly, I will list my frustrations: 1.  Garmin VIRB (Action Cam) app.  This could even be considered a potential safety...

Proudly the first Nav VI owner on Vancouver Island, I thought I'd share some of my experiences with the device fitted to my 2016 R1200RT.  There is little point in discussing the physical installation as there are no challenges involved with installing the battery and clipping into the GPS ...
