BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

I have found out what the problem was. ^-^ A broken earth wire in the loom right where a cable tie had been pulled up to tight.I got a technician out to check out my Biketrac because I suddenly realized that that had stopped working as well.He found it with his probes and wizard bits of kit, brillia...

Thanks I have a look , please let me know if you find it, in case I don't  :) ) Just been doing a bit of nosing about in a maintenance CD that i purchased for this bike when I purchased it.It shows the batteries in the alarm module that is under the rear rack under a small plate held in pla...

Thanks for the help, i have checked both fuses and they were both intact.Unfortunately neither my alarm or central locking are still not working.Any further suggestions

I have a 2015 registered R1200 RT LC LE The problem I have is that the central locking has stopped working of the button on the handlebars. and also the alarm system is not working. it seems a coincident that they have both stopped. I am wondering if a fuse has blown? but do Can-bus system bikes hav...

Has any one purchased the Garmin Zumo XT sat nav ? And what mounting system did they use ?Any input would be most gratefully received
Thanks Steve

As the gent above said. a piece of cake to fit. 

I purchased the wunderlich forward crash bar for my 2015 R1200RT.  After reading this I am wondering what the challenge will be when I go to put them on I fitted a set of Wunderlich engine bars and fairing top protection bars to my 2015 R1200 RT  a month or so ago, the engine bars...

Thanks. So can you line them up back towards you or only as far as in line? Good luck finding your throttle issue. They can be angled back a very small amount, but are more of an inline thing. You have to be careful that the hydraulic hoses are not pulled to tight,check full lock in both directions...

First of all thanks for all the advice, but lets clear up a small misunderstanding.The battery was never disconnected . What was disconnected were the 3 plugs on the right hand side multifunction switch.When I finished the installation of the handle bar risers and reassembled the switch, and plugged...

Does anyone know if the wunderlich risers are multi adjustable? Description says it can be "adjusted in it's angle" does that mean adjusted on the original bar mount or just the position of the switchgear? https://www.nippynormans.com/r1200rt-lc-2014-on/wunderlich-risers-r1200rt-lc-r1250r...

I have just fitted a set of Wunderlich handle bar risers and took the right hand handlebar switch gear and throttle off the bars. I have now fitted it all back on the bike with the 3 plugs reconnected in the correct positions ,but I have no throttle. The central locking, ride mode and stop buttons ...

Thanks for the replies; Being new to BMW and this canbus lark, I was not sure what the deal was for pulling power out of the canbus plug. I wondered if you had to have a special bit of kit in your phone charging wiring to stop the canbus system going into error.  But as pointed out so long...

I have just purchased a Givi ST605 locking tank bag and I want to add a power supply to the bag via a Givi S111 power hub, But I want to cut off the coax plug on the Givi power inlet lead, And change it for the Nippy Normans  Part No: BAS-BA12, So I can plug it into the BMW Canbus plug poi...

As a "youngster" I used to go touring on a GPZ900R, then a GTR1000, then a FJR1300.  I traded the FJR for a 2007 R1200RT in 2008 and I'm now on my fourth RT.  :) I turned 65 in 2012 and retired in 2015, so having a R1200RT and being retired is just a coincidence for me.&...
