BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

I went to order the heed bars! They don't have an option to post to the UK a bit of googling shows they have stopped posting to the UK since brexit  :-X


I have also notice that you have to buy extra brackets for the auxiliary lights

Yes I have seen heed bars and I agree they are a good price too


I was contemplating the wunderlich bars but I don't believe you can use head protectors with them

I have been looking about for some engine bars for my 2016 RT I have seen the ilium bars and like the way they sit as they leave the casings free for maintenance plus I have genuine head covers and was planning on leaving these on The trouble is they are twice as much as others  :-X&nbs...

Do you know what the MOT regulations will be in October 2023

Pictures would be good 

Is the GPS lock still available?

I'm in the UK but Sussex is a bit of a hike for me

Well I found a place for my stop & go!


just enough space under the seat for it to sit in so I tie wrapped it to the seat with re usable tie wraps

If your bike doesn't have the audio option fitted, there is some useful space behind the dashboard speaker grilles. I have an Airman compressor in one side and a basic toolkit and a few spare bulbs etc in the other. Everything is in heavy-duty ziploc bags. The torx driver under the seat can be used...

I just did exactly that. I went with Wunderlich engine bars for a couple of reasons.. the mounts seemed stronger than Ilium, and I had a couple of price-reductions that got them into the garage at about $40 US less than Ilium. But I strongly favored the Ilium rear bars for their ease of removal whe...

When I go touring all the luggage goes with me but a lot of the time we will be leaving the panniers and other times I won't have anything with me not even a tail pack

I discovered today that the under seat storage is none existent on the RT! On the FJR I managed to get in a decent tool kit, stop and go puncture repair kit, Small air compressor and a tyre pressure gauge. I am struggling with the tyre pressure gauge on the RT  :)) I have seen one of these ...

I have ordered one of these myself but opted for the cheaper snail mail!


This is for my zumo xt though
