Re: LED Headlight Upgrade on RTLC
I'm going to attempt this later this week or at the weekend, had a quick look up behind the light and not the best for access :( Good luck, and just be patient, it can be done and its a very worthwhile upgrade. UPDATE: i've had a look at putting LEDs in the Highbeams also. But these look ...

Re: I've been knocked off!!
Sorry to hear about your altercation mate. I bet it was a shock, getting punted up the rear like :eggs: .
Glad to hear your ok though, as it could have been much worse.

Re: Hill Assist
I'd agree hill start is not essential but that applies to a lot of the electronic features on the latest RTs. They're just highly developed bikes and BMW make a habit of constantly adding a host of newer such features to each new model. But since it came with the bike, which I've only had for a cou...

Re: Neutral
No problems finding neutral on my 8000mile RTLC, and the rest of the gearbox is getting slicker with every mile.

Re: LED Headlight Upgrade on RTLC
Yes, it passed me off that we never got LED lights on the RTLC's, And the Halogen lights are a bit shite.

LED Headlight Upgrade on RTLC
I've finally managed to source a decent (actually very good) LED marker, that's at least as bright as a HID bulb. Its the new Philips LUXEON 6000K LED. And i'm very impressed with it, as i've had one on my Ducati during my recent 2000mile blast around France and Spain, where it performed brilliantl...
