Re: Airhawk vs Cool Covers Seat Covers
I see one on there for £12.98 but the pictures are for a LC seat. Are they sufficiently generic to fit both? Is it just the front seat cover? https://www.temu.com/uk/for-bmw-r1200rt-r1200-r-1200-rt-1200rt-motorcycle-accessories-mesh-seat-cushion-cover-protection-insulation-seat-cover-protector-g-60...

Re: Airhawk vs Cool Covers Seat Covers
The extra height is 5 mm to 8mm. Due to the 3D matrix design it doesn't seem to compress. Despite this I find the cover very comfortable. Last year I rode to South Devon with only 2 stops and unlike the standard seat I suffered no bum burn.

Re: Airhawk vs Cool Covers Seat Covers
I purchased my copy of the Cool cover(front and Rear) from Temu. It's not a universal cover but meant for the RT. Fit is perfect but you do need to really stretch the front. For £10 I would recommend it. I keeps my meat and two veg cool in the summer as I can feel the cool air coming up from it. Not...

Re: First RT Ride
Welcome to our site. Nice first couple of ride reviews. Surprised you find it vibrates more than a GS. On my 07 RT I hardly notice any vibration unless am in the wrong gear.

Re: What did you do today?
Plugged my new to me GS_911. Expecting to find loads of faults. Surprise, surprise only two faults found, not bad for a 16 year old bike. ABS short. I learned about this from the BMW service history from five years ago. The second fault was again a short from the front accessory plug. It didn't lie....

Re: What did you do today?
Your area is a bit like mine. Sometimes there is so much tractor dirt on the road that you need a GS just to get out of our village.

Re: Best fuel for MPG.
Supermarket V the expensive petrol in my 07 bike. I've found a tank full of supermarket stuff gives 10mpg less. I've found no loss in performance overall. This may be different if I rode it like a sports bike. Is E10 better than E5 petrol? E10 = 10% ethanol, E5 = 5% ethanol per litre. The ethanol he...

Re: Fuel line replacement
It may be a very tight fit but try putting the line in boiling water to soften it up. It may work or may not
