Had a look about on the net to see of anyone has video'd removin...

Re: BMW R1200RT Cam alignment tools
I suspect they are doing this so people take their bikes to the dealers! Which I thought this was illegal now? I thought they had to supply all the relevant tools for traders to be able to service bikes independently I would complain before cancelling as a complaint may get a set to you quicker :? ...

Re: Just bought a Sargent seat but bits missing ?
£2.85 from Amazon and 2 x M6 cap heads, perfect! And now supports the seat on the frame rails In the high position.
Seat has been well used but has cleaned up nice and both heating elements work. Not bad for £200 delivered

Re: Just bought a Sargent seat but bits missing ?
The cut outs are part of the design, I thought they would be a problem with it but have found the seat very comfortable. I'll have a look at the rubbers tomorrow & post up. Thanks 👍, that would be great. The manual has a picture of them but the depth / height of the rubber part would be useful.

Re: Just bought a Sargent seat but bits missing ?
Just had a look at mine, the two rubber things are used no matter what position the seat is in, low or hight. The diameter is 25mm. Guess you know the thread size. Thanks for the reply, I wondered if they might have changed the design for the same model , the one I bought has a manufacturing date i...

Re: Radio speaker housing 2014 onwards
It’s a good idea Steve. I’m trying to think of a material or membrane I can use to line the inside of the speaker grill that’s waterproof instead the cloth, any ideas ?.

Re: Oil filters and oil weight
I recently changed the oil on my 1250 from Castrol power 1 racing 5w/40 to the recommendation bmw/ shell 5w/40 , same viscosity I know but I’m pretty sure gear changes were slightly smoother on the Castrol. If I’m not paying full attention some changes can be a little crunchy. I’ll be going back to ...

Re: BMW R1200RT Cam alignment tools
I’ve been checking online every few days t see if anyone has the 1250 jigs and cam chain tensioner tool but no luck.
I’d be very happy to hire them but I can’t find anyone so far. It’s so frustrating
