I would try drying it out, then recheck - I think it's unlikely to be fried

Re: Instrument cluster adjustment?
Be brave, spread the load using both hands, one at the top middle, one at the bottom, press on the edges, not the clear screen, it will move!

Re: LED headlight bulb
I can share my experience of this type of bulb, I purchased a set of very high end LED replacements, fitted them and they were very bright and clean looking (from the front) On driving at night they threw a wide beam but incredibly short, I think this was due to the difference in light distribution ...

Re: Wanted : infill panels
I have these on my bike, usually supplied for the police bikes, but readily available from your local BMW Motorrad dealer - IMHO they are brilliant

Re: Innovv Dual Camera dashcam installed on R1200RT LC
No problem, for routing the front camera I mounted the cam right in the middle under the headlight using 3m VHB tape, this gave enough of a gap to bend the cable at 90 degrees, then cable clips along the "seam" under the headlight, then up into the fairing. Remove the seat, the fairing pan...

Re: Innovv Dual Camera dashcam installed on R1200RT LC
I had a somewhat similar issue and went through these steps to identify the cause. 1 - take it out of the pouch, my pouch was so tight it was holding the buttons down and switching it off, try this - does it work? 2 - Make sure the power cable is plugged into the unit of the RHS - opposite to the ot...

Re: RT LC Top lateral panel tabs
Sorry to hear your poor experience with the dealer, my 2015 LC wnet in for a service at Cannons BMW in Braintree UK, during the service the LHS fairing panel tabs were snapped putting the panel back on and the windscreen was scratched when the workshop added the switchgear for the LED additional lig...

Re: Poor FM reception
The flat braided wire is the "official" ground wire that acts as the ground plane for the antenna, it needs this as it's mounted to plastic, the signal cable is a thin sleeved black wire, it has a clip connector behind the RH fairing panel, which you can remove by undoing the two torx scre...

Re: Gear shift assist operation
You will need to use the clutch from a standstill to engage any gear, you should not try to use the assist from a standing start. When changing up you will find the right rev range for your bike, you need to keep a constant throttle for the smoothest changes, it takes a little practice but you'll ge...
