BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Had a 660 till I lost it on the way to work one morning.Thought I'd try a different make(had the 550 before the 660)so went for the Tomtom 550 and have to say it's a great nav,find it so much better than the Zumo.Easy to use for someone who found the basecamp a load of cobblers(my personal view) Wir...

I did 400 miles around essex suffolk and norfolk, did 5 landmarks for the round britain rally. Spent a lot of the time trying to keep up with an H2 SX and two 1290 KTMs, which was fun. Took me bike out for its maiden voyage yesterday and covered much the same area as you,may well have passed.Had a ...

You bought the oil THEN emailed the company to ask if it was any good for ya bike ???
You've ridden all those bikes and even after being told not to use the oil,still persist in asking is it ok to use.
This has got to be a wind up,shirley.

Thanks for the reply.Will you be fitting a power commander/fuel commander or does the LC re invent itself.Will definitely be changing the end can on mine but not 100% sure on going the whole hog. Had me 16 plate LC 8 months now and not done 1 mile on it :alas: So I've no idea of the power yet.

OOF,that is 1 lovely looking pipe and can set up.If you don't mind(can tell me to bugger off)what was the total cost and did you get the bike remapped/dynoed.What were the gains. I have Arrow headers and Acky pipe on me GSF 1250 with a fuel Commander,was set up on the dyno and transformed the power ...

Reckon it's the same.My bike was sold as black but when delivered from Bath Motorcycles it was brown/bronze in  1 light and black in another.I love it,great colour.

I might be being stout here but how would i fit my keyless key into an ignition barrel that doesn't exist.

I live within my means nowdays.After selling the VFR1200 it took me another 18 months to save enough for a 16 plate in the condition/dress i wanted.I owe nothing on the bike and that's how i like it.Lender nor borrower be.

I'll give them the chance to get the key to work,but not untill i'm ready.I'll see if i can worm a bit of a discount of summit whiler i'm at it.

Just spoke to Cannon's, £217 for a new key.Oh how I laughed. When i stopped laughing i went and bought the key,they done me a better rate-£208 :alas: Picked the key up last saturday,got it home and the bike doesn't recognise it.Quick call to Cannon and they tell me to bring key and bike to them(no ...

Started off many years ago with a Zumo 550 that gave up after many years happy use.Sent it back to Garmin with a cheque for £111 to get it refurbished.About a month later i got a new/refurbished 660 with all the mounts for the bike and car.Sold all the 550 stuff on ebay and as good as got me £111 ba...
