Re: Final Drive Boot Assembly

Don't waste your money on the BMW stuff, it just dries out after a while. Look at it the first time you take the boot off. Any good white lithium grease works much better.

Re: R1250RT 2021 spare aux plugs

BMW makes a splitter for the aux power outlet on the right side. Part# 61127698475
Might be what you need if no spare available. Will be watching this if you find an unused spare on the bike.

Re: Battery Discharge Rates

All of mine have been AGM for many years now and way better than the old flooded. 1-2% discharge per month is typical. Some more info here:

Re: Pannier protection from BMW

Re: Rear-gear oil capacity for 2021 1250RT

Capacity vs Service?
Initial fill 200ml
Service/oil change put 180ml in.
Possible but can't see that changing on 21 RT. No service DVD available for owners yet is really the issue.

What bike are you comparing it to? I have a 2017 Harley Ultra, 2017 BMW GSA, and 2021 BMW RT and they all feel/handle differently.

Re: Warranty conditions

Re: Thought on using the ZumoXT on a 2021RT

You mean like this? App works but has limited search options and not easy/fast to work while riding. Just to zoom in or out requires too much menu options to go through. Plan route and load into GPS, doesn't get easier than that too. [size=5px]https://www.wunderlichamerica.com/BMW_Motorcycle_R1200_R...

Re: TFT and General stuff on the 21 R1250RT

I thought I would try and resolve my problem by deleting everything and starting again. So the only pair from the Sena is to the bike (this is not ideal but I thought it would remove any possible interference from other pairings) Re-downloaded the app and re-connected it to the bike. All appears fi...

Re: New 2021 R1250RT, What I know

Why not just use the oil level sight glass and quit wasting time measuring what goes in?
