Hello Steve,

What determines which bike you're going to take out for the day? That seems to be a tough choice to make!!! 8-)

I'm selling the '20 RT, so then I'll only have the new RT or the red Ninja to choose from, sad. :lol:

History repeating itself :::::

My 2020 R1250RT was towed to the dealer, in 2020, for the leaking Hayes calipers, and now my 2023 R1250RT getting towed to the dealer for left side handlebar switch gremlins. CRAZY !!!!!

I just returned from the dealer. They found nothing wrong with the AM and XM antennas, and no problems with the left side handlebar switches.

While I got my gear on, I started the bike and turned on the XM radio, thankfully the station was going in and out, I got the service advisor and showed him, and bewilderment was the look on his face. Two minutes before he was telling me how there's nothing wrong, and I haven't even moved the bike and it's still F_ _ _ed Up. It's blatantly obvious the mechanic never rode the bike, incredible.

I'll call BMW tomorrow and see what happens.

Steve
