Re: Hearing a click when changing suspension from MAX to MIN.

Well, the suspension works perfectly, nothing wrong with it, only hearing one click changing from MAX to MIN, wondering what causes it.

My '18 R1200RT LC did the same thing, also heared a click changing from 2 helmets to 1 helmet :roll:

Hearing a click when changing suspension from MAX to MIN.

I have a '20 R1250RT, and when I change my suspension (preload) from "MAX" to "MIN" I hear a click; is this normal?

Thanks!

Re: How to remove instrument cluster R1200RT/RT1250RT

Thanks. Well, if I look at the Realoem picture, It looks like the instrument cluster is only popped into those 3 rubber grommets, but that's likely to easy ;) Probably some bodywork has to be removed.......

How to remove instrument cluster R1200RT/RT1250RT

Does somebody know how to remove an instrumentcluster of a R1200RT LC/R1250RT, can you just pull it towards you (and pops out the rubber grommets) without removing any bodywork, or do you have to remove a lot of bodywork? https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=0J61-EUR-11-2019-K52-BMW-R_1250_...

Leaking valve cover R1250RT

I have a '20 R1250RT with about 15000km on the clock. Discovered couple of weeks ago a small oil stain on the right valve cover, probably a leaking valve cover gasket, but it's very difficult to see where the oil comes from because due to the wind the oil doesn't stay at one place. Cleaned a couple ...

Removing front cover engine R1250RT

Are the 2 upper screws of the engine front cover easy to unscrew because the triagle is in the way?


Anyone experience in removing the engine front cover?

Re: Exhaust flapper valve does not cycle at ignition ON.

What is exactly wrong with the exhaust flapper when you get an orange engine warning light? My '20 R1250RT (12500km) made a strange noise out of the exhaustmuffler last week, as if a pair of marbles where in the muffler, so I suspected the exhaust flapper was loose or something, but when I restarted...

Re: Loss of power / surging going up a hill.

Did you see a light flashing on the dash? Orange one is from the traction control I think. Maybe the bike was in rainmode?

I assume the BMW dealer follow the centre stand procedure, otherwise it takes to much time and hassle, but I'm not sure.
