BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

I would have been up for meeting up but already promised to take the wife out tomorrow for her to spend money

So I spent all day today running around Yorkshire

If you search this issue has been posted about before Basically your bite point is moving as the bike warms up! A lot of people have had the issue me included I replaced the clutch fluid and it helped but never eliminated it completely. I set my clutch for how I want it when it was warmed up and dea...

I found a bike very close to mine with the same spec + radio & DLR lights. It's build date is 3 weeks earlier and has done 1100 miles more, I don't think I'll find a closer bike if mine is written off. https://approvedused.bmw-motorrad.co.uk/UK/detail.cshtml?on=525229 I would take some screensh...

Then they say "I was just trying to help"

If my wife asks if I want help I say yes! Keep out the way

She knows to leave me to it unless I ask

Get well soon Glen.

What happened to the first two?

It may not be the cruise switch

It maybe your clutch switch so have a look at that too

Not good @Glenn hope you're OK and you don't have too much messing about with insurance!

Hi and welcome to the forum

And is the low beam still working OK?

I have been looking at new seats for mine as just recently I have been getting a pain in the arse! or so the wife says :lol: Normally I can go a good 10 - 12 hours and 300+ miles before any issues but the other day 120 miles and a few hours and I was in pain! Is this a sign I am getting old :lol: I ...

Ah you're talking about a mount

I am talking about an adaptor that allows you to mount most sat navs to the nav prep and take its power from there

Like so

You can get various brackets for different devices to fit whatever you like.I'm buggered if I can remember the name of the set up but I'm convinced it's German.

Are you talking about the italian 3DAM adaptor?

Personally if it was me I would buy a standalone sat nav like the Garmin or TomTom

There will be plenty of people along soon enough to tell you of the issues of the expensive BMW Nav range and why to avoid it

You should be able to remove the mount and fit a different sat nav there

Nice looking bike
