BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

I think the photos are not sufficiently  detailed. The wear pattern on the front tyre is the same on both sides of the centre line.

The last photo is of the rear tyre.  Riding is a mixture of  straight and twisty roads. Always solo,  15 Stone approx. Like to ride fairly  quickly!

Sorry text got mangled with the photos, which have appeared upside down!
However I hope the content is understandable.

My 2015 Rt has had Metzeler tyres from new. Mileage is now 7000. The front  tyre has worn very differently from the rear tyre Hopefully the photos show the difference. The front  tyre has developed a pronounced [attachimg=1][attachimg=2][attachimg=3][attachimg=4][attachimg=5][attac...

Taz. I would be interested to hear about your experience of fitting the brake light and what is involved. As you know I already have fitted Darlas. Thanks in advance.

Taz. I had the same problem. RTman10 advised me to reset date/time. That was all it needed!

Very pleased with my July 2015  RT - now 7000 miles  Water pump etc replaced because of seal weep. Tab on front right panel broke- my fault.  Touch wood, no signs of corrosion or other problems.

Sorry  'typo'  should have said posi- tap.

Yes, Clearwater supply the post-tap connectors.

My apologies as I think I may have caused confusion. The term auxiliary its misleading. I should have said the positive battery terminal that is visible from the side and is covered by a red plastic cap. This is shown in the owners manual.

Just wondered as it is so much easier to attach to the auxiliary positive post. I used this for the Clearwater relay and a Nautilus horn relay, in addition to a separate 12v power source for an air-compressor etc.

Who supplies the clear water lights in the uk ? I've done the usual google search but nothing coming up in the uk No one now. The only UK  Clearwater agent was the Rollcentre at St Ives, Cambridgeshire. They now no longer supply,  but I believe they will still fit the lights. If y...

I just installed a set of Darlas on my RT yesterday. I mounted them on my crashbar. Haven't been able to try them because it is 17 dgrees F (-8 C). I hope l don't regret not spending the extra for the Ericas. I bought them mostly for conspicuity as I try to avoid driving at night. Too many deers ar...

I ordered a set of the Clearwater Darla lights and they were quickly dispatched - however.....  I've just had DHL on the 'phone saying that until I pay £107 !!!! in VAT and duty they cannot release the lights to me.  A conversation with HMRC reveals that those greedy people in Gov...

mhr43 - did you have any problems mounting the Darla lights? How easily did they link into the canbus? I have just joined this forum in the hope of getting some answers on this very question and, hey, within 5 minutes it looks like I have. Thanks. Hi Taz.  I didn't have any problems with t...
