BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

[/attachment] What’s going on with prices….. I have a 2020 1250RT, immaculate condition 12k miles, dealer offered me £10k trade in against a second hand K1600!

Thanks bud, that's very useful.

Hi,

Does anyone have a list of torque settings for the 1250 RT ? Doesn't seem to be an official BMW workshop repair manual or a Haynes one in the UK.
So any info would be helpful.

Thanks

So our pair of GSD are 7 years old today (29th Jan 24). We've had them since they were 6 weeks old. There names are Leo & Piper. She is the brains and he is the brawn. Our GSD Pups.jpg 20170507_102054_resized.jpg Leo & Piper.jpg 20220120_193430.jpg This one was taken just after they cam...

Hi all, Anyone used Road 5s on a 1250 RT ? If so how did you like them and most importantly what mileage did you get ? My RT had them on when I bought it seems like it had a new pair on about 6,500 miles ago, a new front fitted before I bought it and the same rear, which I reckon has done about 8,50...

Welcome.

The only other way I found they came off was whilst escorting the German chancellor from RAF Northolt into central London and I got a bit close to an oncoming vehicle’s door mirror which knocked the back off mine

Fold mirror in then pull the exposed section of the mirror back inline/parallel to the line of the glass. I find a quick jerk works better than a long pull!

My wife retired last year after 35 years frontline NHS including Emergency Medicine. Over the years she has been assaulted many times at work. Nearly every case was due to alcohol or mental illness. Every night shift A&E always had Police in attendance. Sorry to hear about your wife assault, th...

Not backwards or you could break the 3 retaining hooks.
There is also a string that stops you losing the cover.

Thanks for taking the time to reply mate

Hi all
Anyone know how to remove the mirror covers on a 1250 rt ? Need to replace one of mine

Is there a consensus about the best long distance saddle cover.? On my last two Mexico trips I was on an ST1300 with a comfy Sargeant saddle. My biggest complaint is that after a long day ride my man unit felt like it had been ground up in a metate. I mean, the RT saddle seems big, wide and comfy, b...
