BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Really good to meet everyone this morning.  It was a great chance to try out the heated grips and seat! Thanks for braving the cold chaps.


We had 5 RTs, One GS, and a Triumph Trophy too.


I think I want an iconic in my life - I love the red colour. Thanks for the tea Kevin.

Really good to meet everyone, had a good 180 mile round trip  8)  Only managed a bacon butty, but next time full english for me. Thanks for the coffee Kevin.

Great to meet everyone today and put faces to some names. Heated grips really make a difference.

Didn't need the heated grips on at all  8)  You need a pair of those BMW Pro Water gloves. A snip at your local dealer. Got to admit though they are pretty good.

I've got an old pair of worn out axon ones that leak if I put a BMW badge on will they keep me warm n dry. Lol

Lol this pre duck tive text thingy is a hoot! They can be bought from your local Bring More Water dealership  :alas:

I of course have a pair of the Winter ones .  Haven't used them since the LC arrived as your out of the wind blast.  Anything thicker than the Pro Summer ones now feel very bulky.  But I agree they are toasty warm and mine never leaked.

Excellent, we also had 5 RT's at the "Up North" meet, hopefully this is the start of things to come.

Yep, great to meet you all. Just got in. Went on to visit a mate in Pagham that i had not seen for 35 years. Heated grips and seat were fantastic, like others had said, I had to turn them down/ off at they were too hot.
My Brother inlaw on the Triumph enjoyed it as well. A good bunch of chaps. See you again sometime.
