When is next service due? R1200RT 2013

Post by Stigwh »

My new-to-me bike does not have a clear record for service performed. I know the serviceindicator should tell me within a month to next service, or within the next 2000 kms. But is it possible to see the date or kms prior these two scenarios?

You are trying to figure out what the mileage *was* the last couple times the service reminder was reset?

Looks like using a GS-911, allows you to view the Service Due date & mileage, https://www.hexcode.co.za/products/gs-9 ... -reminders

After that, it's probably a trip to your local BMW Motorrad Dealer.

It'll come up (service) on the screen/clocks ('briefly' until staying on after the date/mileage has been reached) about 300 miles (500 km's) in distance before your bikes due it's next service. If you haven't reached the 6k miles in the 12 months it'll come up about 2 to 3 weeks before the 12 months are up. That's if it hasn't been set in the ECU to never show up on the clocks again. I'm not sure if you can view previous resets of the service reminder with a GS-911?  I'll have a look when I plug mine in for it's next 6k oil change to confirm.
The GS 'is' the better bike :-)

Would plugging in the GS-911 allow you to view the current (latest) service date/mileage setting prior to it appearing on the dash.
