Re: BMW R1200RT Cam alignment tools
So, ….. after a very very looooong time waiting for the BMW cam timing tools I decided to get the job done. Both left / right side inlet and exhaust cam alignment was off, I’ve yet to ride and test after adjusting as the heavens opened 🙄. I’m not looking for any improvement in performance/ride abili...

Re: 1250 Test ride part 1
The one thing that bugs me is when the motors warm it’s a rattly thing on the left cylinder, I was out at the weekend in the car and pulled up alongside a gs1250 at a set of lights, I opened the window and his engine sounded very similar and that was a 24 plate. Mine sounds the same (2020) Panman, ...

Re: Damn headlight bulb replacement!
I think I’ll have a practice at changing the bulbs one day … perhaps fit Phillips ED ( extended driving long life bulbs. I can’t be bothered with the cyclops kit and I hear it’s not recommended to fit cheaper led bulbs on their own ?.

Re: Down side to weight loss
Well done on the weight loss, it’s something myself and wife would like to do, for me it’s my stomach and I now wear 40” waist trousers with braces, I’m very self conscious :cry: , since last year I’m finding I’m cramped with the wife on pillion. I like my food and we like our drink :shock: . I trie...

Re: 1250 Test ride part 1
I had an ST1300 pan for 16 years 2006 to 2022, I don’t do huge miles but I did like the ST, I was going to hang my boots up due to neck problems but wife and I decided to have a change instead :lol: , I have the 2019 1250rt, it does many things well and overall I don’t regret the change, it’s a litt...

Display for miles left ?
We popped out for an hour the other day and I couldn’t be bothered to buy fuel, I had 3 bars when I left which soon dropped to 2, I thought I’d have a look at the miles left display but toggling around the menus I couldn’t see it anywhere .
So can somebody jog my memory please !.
Thanks.

Re: Sargent seat
I used it for the first time this week on my Sargent seat and found it took some of the harshness out of the ride. The Sargent seat has less padding than the OEM seat. But the Sargent seat has a great shape to it. Agreed the Sargent is a better shape and it’s a lot firmer, I can go a little longer ...

Skint hands, 8 various brushes none of which I can reach the intricate bits with, bad back, cricked neck etc etc. so I’m thinking mi...
