BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Sorry, I misunderstood your post, I thought you were saying you had only ridden in the UK.

Hi James, I went to France, Spain, Portugal,back into Spain then Andorra and back through France. My first trip into Europe, 4025 miles in 14 days, absolutely brilliant. Some of the best riding was in Portugal, I'm sure you will enjoy it just make sure you have good breakdown cover and health insura...

My wife loves our bike and likes nothing better than riding the Dales or Lakes and having a good pub lunch, at my expense, of course. But then she did pay half towards the bike

Thanks for your help.

Hi
Has anyone got any insight into PR 6s, How do they handle, how is turn in, light or not so. What are they like with over banding and road imperfections. What sort of mileage can I expect. Any info would be appreciated before spending loads of cash.

I rode them hard, but was a little shocked that they wore out that quickly right down to the cords.

Hi,
That tyre looks odd, it does not look to be worn as flat as the the R5 i have just taken off at almost 8k !

Hi, Thanks for all your replies. I was interested to learn how long it might take to recover the outlay for UniCarScan UCSI-2100 and MotoScan Ultimate. Resetting the service reminder, to my preference, was easy. There are lots of other settings that look like I need to leave alone ! One problem is i...

Hey fella,
Welcome, hope you enjoy.

Hi,
Does anyone, in the UK, have any idea how much a dealer might charge to reset your service light ?

At 54k the bike is only just run in. People worry way too much about higher millage bikes. As long as it has a full service history and not falling apart, it is worth buying. Just look at some of the mileage Americans ride their bikes I totally agree. The bike was immaculate and fully serviced. Jus...

Dealer told me it was due to high mileage and he would not keep it in his showroom.

[/attachment] What’s going on with prices….. I have a 2020 1250RT, immaculate condition 12k miles, dealer offered me £10k trade in against a second hand K1600! Does mileage effect price that much on a touring bike Where do you guys go for price guides? Oh yes it does. Traded my 2016 1200RS with 54,5...

Thanks bud, that's very useful.

Hi,

Does anyone have a list of torque settings for the 1250 RT ? Doesn't seem to be an official BMW workshop repair manual or a Haynes one in the UK.
So any info would be helpful.

Thanks

So our pair of GSD are 7 years old today (29th Jan 24). We've had them since they were 6 weeks old. There names are Leo & Piper. She is the brains and he is the brawn. Our GSD Pups.jpg 20170507_102054_resized.jpg Leo & Piper.jpg 20220120_193430.jpg This one was taken just after they cam...
