BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Agree that dash cams can be very useful for proving innocence, or guilt, when accidents occur. That can be a two edged sword! Also, from conversations heard around the traps here, no personal experience with the below, but you might want to take the info on board: In Australia the police have the po...

I run the digital speedo as well, however, I usually have music playing whilst I'm riding, which overrides the digital readout, and I have come to predominantly use the satnav speed readout. I also find that, if I'm using the satnav, I don't draw my eyes as far away from the road as I do if I'm look...

I think the K1600 and K1200LT have(had?) a courtesy light that shone down on the ground for a short time after you shut the bike down.

I use the quick access button to access trip meter. Then reset the trip meter when I fuel up. I don't trust fuel gauges!

+1 for the FenderExtender and the Sidestand Foot Enlarger. I'd also suggest using loctite on the foot enlarged screws.

I have both engine guards and crash guards. The BMW engine guards to reduce stone chips on the cylinder rocker covers, and Ilium Works crash guards for a (hopefully never) slow speed drop.

From what I have read about using other than BMW's bluetooth headset it appears that with the Sena the wonderwheel would not control the volumn of the bike's audio going to the headset.  It that true? That is true. Volume on the Sena is controlled by the jog wheel on the 20S unit. If you w...

My pride and joy: 2016 RT. Doesn't stay in the garage much on the weekends!

Hmmmm........about the only place I wouldn't like to be in Aus in June is Canberra. Funny that - the place is full of politicians so it should be warmer, what with all the hot air there! Regardless what month, I'll be out riding!! be

Clearwater do a mirror mounted bracket for their lights. Dunno whether they sell the brackets separately, tho. Have a gander at this link:  https://www.clearwaterlights.com/products/krista-r1200rtw?variant=22170737413 I have a set of Clearwater Krista's mounted on an IliumWorks engine guard...

Had my MY16 RT for just on 18 months. Currently has 52000 Kms OTC. Only problems I've had were a weeping water pump seal (fixed itself up) and had both front fork seals replaced under warranty. There was a "technical service fix" (not a safety recall) done on my clutch slave cylinder (agai...

Jan 2016 model, 41,000km on the clock at the moment. At 30,000km had to get the weeping left hand fork seal replaced under warranty. At 40,000km right hand fork seal started weeping - also replaced under warranty. Water pump seal weeped until about 7,000km - no discernible fluid drop in the radiator...

October 2016: 6000Km's Brisbane to Phillip Island for the Australian MotoGP (including as many twisty roads as we could find in the time available)...
