BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

The 2015 LC was delivered today, I'm quite happy with the way the inner pannier bags from the old bike fit, I know they're not perfect, but certainly not as bad as I thought they would be.

Cheers for all the feedback.
I've decided I'm going to hang on to the 2010 for a while, before I decided on the 2015 I was toying with the idea of buying a new triumph bobber, soooo I might just px against one of those...
:alas:

How many of you have more than one RT ??I've got a dilemma, im due to px my 2010 RT for a 2015 LC, but I'm struggling to let go of the old model, it's in mint cond so I'm now swaying to keep it and just buy the LC and keep it along side the old one.
Do I have mental health issues ??
:beee:

Im on the verge of trading my 2010 r1200rt for a 2015 model, my 2010 has all the inner bags for panniers and top box, do these bags fit the new models ?

linked brakes ? Does this include 2010 models ? If it does then that explains why I feel movement in the rear brake pedal when I apply the front brake

Castrol 10/40 rings a bell, I did try 20/50 to see if made any difference which it didn't.
I'm not too concerned about the noise as it only happens for a split second, I'm guessing it's oil pressurising everything

I have a 2010 model with just under 8k miles, if it's of any help mine has a slight rattle around the same time, it happens for a split second and goes, never to be heard again until the following day.

Some great bikes you guys have.
The only other bike I have is a Yamaha xv1700 roadstar Silverado, hopefully pic has shown ok.
The bike has so much grunt and character, be a sad day if I ever had to sell this one.

Who supplies the clear water lights in the uk ?
I've done the usual google search but nothing coming up in the uk

Anyone know if they're available in the uk?

They look really good, nice job.
Silly question but are they more for show or do they actually improve your lighting ?

Anyone going to the Paighton bike show in April ?
I've been a few times, very good turn out each time I've been.

Sullivj, I've just looked at the bag and seen a slight scuff mark which is hardly noticeable, if you want to see a pic I'm happy to send one over to you.
If you're still interested I'll take £80 plus £8 for p&p

Hi Dave, if you're still looking for a tank bag I have one for sale. Looking for £85 plus £8 for p&p, bag is as new.

Cheers Rick, might give it a visit on Sunday, unfortunately, can't do the ace on Saturday.
