What are the 'Diamond symbols' on my nav route?
Hi all. I've just changed my phone and have gone to the trouble of uploading a selection of maps to the BMW Connect app. I've just been out for a ride today and put a destination postcode in the search box but when the map appears on the screen it has a selection of coloured 'diamond shaped' symbols...

Re: New Bike Advice
Hi Gixerjohn I tour a lot across Europe on my 1250RT ...... fabulous bike. I have a heavy chain which, if memory serves, is either 90cm or 110cm long. I can measure it and let you know because the length is important (ahem!) I always wrap it immediately in front of the top box on the pillion seat. I...

Compatible phone for the RT1250
Hi all The phone I currently use for my RT1250 (and everything else) is the Samsung Galaxy S10. As Samsung are now on version S23 you will see that my phone is ancient and, indeed, it is giving me a few problems (but not with the BMW Motorrad Connect side of things) so I need to replace it. I am how...

Have you tried to use the card with a pillion so you can talk to each other or indeed to other paired up riders witin the required range? I'd be interested to know how...

Electronic payment on French toll roads
Hi all
I will be travelling through France next year and wonder if anyone can detail how I can pay tolls electronically to avoid stopping at toll booths. Also, what might I expect to pay travelling from Calais across into Germany.
Many thanks.
