BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

You get a European wide BMW assistance in with the £400 which covers hire car or bike plus hotels if things go really wrong while on a tour, plus if you have a breakdown in another country it's going to take some of the drama out of it. I wouldn't have a BMW bike without a warranty  8)

My apology, for not wording correctly in the first post, all RT owners are such gentlemen  :alas:

Hi

I would like to sell my bike, please share with your poor friends who aren't lucky enough to have a beautiful fantastic R1200RT

Much appreciated, "don't burst my bubble stay 2 meters away"  stay safe out on the road 

All done, but picked up a mini USB cable that didn't work (some just power and will not transfer data) and then had to use the pc control panel to tell it was connected aagghh
But! Successful in the end

Hi My 2018 bike for sale had it from new, warranty until July 2021 https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202002157361472?colour=White&advertising-location=at_bikes&maximum-mileage=20000&postcode=rh69en&model=R1200RT&page=1&price-from=500&make=BMW&onesearchad=...

The difference apparently is the way TomTom and a Garmin come up with the route calculation. I was also informed that to stop getting into trouble on goat tracks you should set your Nav 5 and 6 to car. It will ask you each time you get on the bike but I have found this to be a really good tip!

And if you subscribe to Gold on MRA it aligns with Google maps

Ok so I have a Nav6, and last year used Tyre on my PC, did all my route planning, exported in .gpx format, happy days. Tyre no longer uses google maps, shows straight lines to waypoints, and is no longer supported. Changed to myrouteapp.com sort of OK with it but it only shows road names not number...

I did benefit from the Admiral offer not that I have actually seen any cash or credit!

I bought a extended warranty for my 2018 bike in March to start in April and BMW have extended my warranty for two months (which I thought was a nice gesture without asking).

I would say they left hand bike is correctly lit up and exactly how I would travel (without any blue ones)

Would that refer more to darkness? In Surrey, Sussex and London most people are looking at their phones, texting or playing with the satnav so that the chance of dazzling someone is zero.

And not much traffic on the roads unlike the smoke, I am often in Durham and Northumberland and only get a friendly wave from the traffic guys be it in a car or on a bike. Riding with your day running light and BMW fitted LED s will not cause any concern in my experience. As a vulnerable road user d...

As a vulnerable road user it's definitely encouraged, Surrey and London. I have also been stopped in Wales as every motorcyclist has by traffic, and complemented on the light configuration of a RT. Irish police RT s are lit up the same. I also passed my I A M Advanced Test with a F1rst with the bike...

In the UK it is more than acceptable to use the auxiliary fog lights, having been on a few bikesafe days the traffic police positively encouraged it. It's better than scrapping you off the road because you haven't been seen. The triangular lighting set up is apparently the most visible and reduces t...
