BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Try Motorworks and James Sherlock and Ebay for secondhand case - you can transfer your lid across if it is colour matched. Good call!  James sherlock have complete cases for £250 per side in black.  A carcass assembly from BMW (everything except the lid) is £230.  Much of...

Other half's daughter followed me into a car park yesterday on a scooter and didn't stop.  She collided with my right hand panier and broke the cup that the bike mount tang fits into.  I have tried to fix it with a bonding solution but and not 100% convinced it will hold. ...

I have a Fiamm Mini Blaster on my 1200RT and have just installed one on my other half's MT07.  Being relatively small I was able to mount them in the same place as the original horn in both cases.  I did suggest to Kate that she tries it out a few times so that, when she uses it fo...

My old Zumo 400 has been off the bike since last October - it was fully charged the day I brought it into the house. I've just fired it up to put a couple of custom routes onto it, it still shows fully charged. The battery was new last March. Pete Likewise my Zumo 660 battery will still show full a...

Any way to prevent a Nav6 battery going flat - even when removed from the cradle and turned off via the power button? 

You might need to reconsider the price - these can be purchased new for less than £200.

I'm ready to upgrade from my '09 F800ST to an R1200RT. A trusted friend will sell me his for trade in value - $6000. it is a '14 that is pristine and has 95k miles. The bike runs beautifully, has been meticulously maintained, dealer serviced, oil changed every 3-5k, more than $5k worth of farkles. ...

My first headset was a BT/Cardo unit and it was great.  In fact it still works fine as my mate is using it and it must be getting on for 10 years old now. I tried a pair of Interphone units and they were worse than useless.  The support from the importer and the manufacturer was no...

Here's something that might be interesting - how many of you RT owners also own a BMW car? 

I am sure that mirrors were available that were a straight fit.  K1200RS mirrors perhaps?  I am sure that I also saw an after-market solution on a well known auction site that were a straight bolt on but that was a while back.     

Thanks. I bought a few parts from NN in the past for my previous boxer. Excellent service, I just hope I remember the login I used on their website. The Mini Blaster is one of the two options I have in mind, together with the Denali Mini Soundbomb. If you have a picture of your installation (and pe...

I have the TC - not the LC. 

Casbar wrote: Got better things to do than polish exhausts But you'll be getting your headers replaced because the flap is stuck before long. I've had two sets in 3 years

Mine is still OK.  Had the bike from new in Jan 13 and no issues with the flap thus far. 

I don't mind a bit of blueing - it matches my midnight blue metallic bike. 

Welcome! 

I fitted a Fiamm Mini Blaster to mine after a motorway incident with a Range Rover.  He started to drift into my lane so I hit the OE horn and he didn't even hear it.  On went the Fiamm a few days later and I no longer have such issues.
