BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Just had a look, 15mm.
Sorry for the tardiness have been doing some work in't garden!

The cut outs are part of the design, I thought they would be a problem with it but have found the seat very comfortable.
I'll have a look at the rubbers tomorrow & post up.

Thanks @sakm - I have a lead with Powerbronze who it turns out are a 40 min drive from my home (oh dear another reason for a ride!). They can't get me a clear touring screen in my timescale but, at their kind invitation, I'm going down there later to take a look at the tinted version. I was initial...

Had a Shoei Multitec when I got the 1200 in 2014, which I'd worn for some years, it was very good. After my rear end shunt I had it replaced from the insurance with a BMW System 5. A very nice helmet, reasonably quiet, I wear plugs. Changed to system 7, 2 years back as BMW had a £100 off if exchangi...

Roadsmart III for me, find them excellent in both grip & wear.

That's a very interesting video David, many thanks. I've found that riding solo, rider + luggage is good for me, 13 1/2 stone, but the most compliant setting is when Mrs smileymiley and I have been touring . Fully loaded with top box & kitchen sink! the 2 rider setting is spot on. Very plush &am...

I believe it's 10 amps overall over the 2 sockets.

I've used Hodgson & Mackenzie for the past few years. Very reasonable prices.

Many thanks Stu for taking the forum over & the hard work that you are putting in.
Much appreciated

Exactly!

Yep, EBC HH here too.No problems with them.

Yes, SOS did my recovery when I was rear ended in 2015.
Exemplary service and attitude.

Renewed my insurance today, received quote from Mackenzie Hodgson. Been with them for a few years now. £201 for year fully comp. last year was £164 Compare the Market came up with £186 from Mackenzie Hodgson! Their email states: (Your renewal will never be more expensive than a like for like new cus...

I ride all year round,  'cept snow, like you the madness has reduced my mileage somewhat. Retired early in 2019 thinking that Mrs smileymiley & I would be travelling all over the place. Usually had 2 to 3 holidays a year! But idiotic politicians & unscientific scientists seem to hav...
