BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Sorry.  Panic over, problem solved.

Just started to remove spot/fog lights prior to sale. Don't know what I have done wrong, but no illumination or dials on dash working. Ignition on as engine starts and all lights work. Any ideas??

After four very happy years with my 1200rt-lc, the time has come, due to age and infirmity, to swap it for a smaller and lighter bike. I have decided after much research and  several road tests to buy a F800GT. I will miss the power and comfort of the RT, but I am keen to continue my riding...

I also get the 'challenge' questions, but not every time I visit the site. Curious?

Yes they do ship to Europe, but dont forget you will pay import tax.

I agree with yellowjacket, the Werks quiet ride screen added to comfort and enjoyment.


My second choice is the Clearwater Darla lights, despite the cost.      I just feel so much safer knowing there is a better chance I will be seen.

I think it is on one of the Swiss passes, and there is a James Bond theme?

@simbo  Correct @mhr43 Spot on, too easy. I think the Vale of Belvoir has some of the best biker roads in the area. Mostly National Limit with very little traffic or Police presence. Ideal combination. I agree. It is my home turf. However, I don't quite agree with you on Police presence. 3...
