BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Thanks Pete but my mistake has Eu found Poland, Finland, Portugal etc.


The picture is with the screen protector attached.

Fit the screen protector using the kit from Nippys and went well, cant tell there is another screen attached and screen is protected from previous type of damage. Happy days.

My Navigator VI fell out of the mounting,  wasn't quite seated, and the screen hit the handlebar at around the centre putting a mark on it. Couldn't live with it and looked on the net for a replacement screen but couldn't find a new supplier. I rang Garmin and they said they could exchange...

Your welcome to join me if you can keep up. I do always use Shell Nitro in the bike and the X1 All wheel and that does 35 mpg on A and B roads

Well said sir.  :clap:

Yes I know. I was pointing out the integration of the nav vi to the bike.

Lower rear footpegs for passenger and camera mount both from Nippys. Exceptional quality.

Worth it to have it in the dash and all the Integration advantages. Found the other day when ignition is on but engine not running the Nav tells me the abs And tpm have not completed the test cycle. ( because engine not running.) Great piece of kit.

Got a pair of these, just like wearing ordinary jeans but with abrasion resistance, armour and waterproof. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNzP7I9cLJc https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=rokker+revolution+jeans&adgrpid=58593799812&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI2Z3O34bS6wIV0QJ7Ch2a4wZcEAAYASAAEgL9TfD_BwE&hv...

Yes they were down but the bottom lug wasnt in.

Wet sunshine.

Are you in Uk or somewhere not as good.

Ordered  screen protectors from Nippys for future. Thought Garmin was pretty good and reasonable.

Reds the best colour.

Mines doing 65mpg riding 2 up.
