BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Back in my RT days we used to strap a self contained GPS device to the bike and away we went. I realise that things have moved on now. Does the all singing and dancing TFT unit act like a Carplay system (among other things) and mimic the BMW Connected App programme on your phone? If so, how do you ...

Sargent Wilson will be in attendance also.

Them plastic side stand puks they use to protect the showroom floor tiles in bmw dealers work a treat on tarmac. They're free too

@motormuis welcome to the forum This is an old thread and @MrW hasn't visited since 2021! Anyway do these bikes have an oil cooler? Yes they do, but unless your actually moving and creating airflow through the cooler it doesn't really do anything. The only real answer is fitting a fan like the RTp ...

Behind the left hand fairing panel, it's a plug that goes on the back of the din socket.

Would a Jubilee clip tightened up around the plastic help to get more purchase to stop the nut spinning?

Is it plugged in at the back? You have to disconnect it when you remove the fairing panel, it might not have been plugged back in.

I hit a rock in the pyrenees and had to use two strings to fill the hole (well, Michael did ) it lasted the duration of the tyre.

They're allowed without doubt. The the question is, would they make it?

I'd like to do the ride in lunchtime meet at the NCMM on 4th June at 1pm. That's fine David, I hope it goes well and the weather is kind to you :thumb: Michael and myself will still be in Germany on that date, so we're unable to attend. The Sunday after we probably won't be going out due to have co...

Count me in although I did find it amusing hyjacking the other thread

Sunday the 25th is the only Sunday in June I'll be free. I wouldn't mind meeting somewhere in Derbyshire for breakfast then doing a ride over to the coal museum for lunch, then back into Derbyshire to continue the ride before home.
