Re: Tank Bags

Is that Bracket part of the tank? I had a 05 RT that had what was called a "Ladder" on the tank. BMW had a tank bag that fastened to it. a Very specific R1200RT tank bag on that. Pretty slick really. Don't think they are available anymore and haven't seen a ladder on a RT in a long long ti...

Re: XM Antenna

That is what I am looking to do. I have a Mark V GPS from a previous RT, that I would like to mount above the TFT as you have depicted. Somewhere I saw a post that someone had used a mount for the Police version (RTP) and it looked a lot like something from a GS. I am exploring the possibilities. I ...

XM Antenna

How many people have moved the XM antenna from atop the Dash to another location on the RT? I would like to move that antenna, to the tail of the bike. I would like to put a GPS mount up there above the TFT like someone mentioned using a mount for a RTP. I am not real sure how to 1. remove the curre...

Re: Garage Door Remote Control

Flash2Pass.com, mounts on the bike under a fairing or behind the speaker, the way it works is you flash your high beams coming up the drive. Bam! garage door opens! Like pulling into the "Bat Cave" :lol:

49L old Style Top Box (Sold)

I have a old style Non Electric Top Box that I refurbed and had repainted to match the 2016 R1200RT I had. Traded the R1200RT for a new 23 R1250RT and kept the Top Box cause the dealer was low balling me. I have 400.00 in it. The locking cylinder is still in it but I do not have a key for it. IT CAN...

Re: Highway Pegs on Crash bars

I just finished putting some Farkles on my 23 R1250RT "night fighter" Among those were Crash bars (made by Baione) and ilium Highway pegs. While the pegs are expensive (took them off a previous 16 R1200RT) and I will someday put black ones on the black Crash bars. Until then, these will do...

Front and Rear Crash bars (Silver) 2014-2018 R1200RT SOLD

Excellent condition front and rear crash bars fits 2014-2018 R1200RT Silver in color. Front bars have a mark from the highway pegs. Put these on my 2016 and promptly took them off because I traded my R1200RT in on a 2023 R1250 RT. They weren't paying me the extra for the bars so they didn't get them...

Re: Top box case

The older 49L top box has a handle, the newer 49L Top Box has provisions to install a additional brake tail light. I've have both and would prefer the light. Although they should have figured out how to make half of that light to blink with the turn signal too.

Re: Grip Puppie Install

Spray the inside with Hair spray, get it good and wet slip it on the handle grip,
hair spray dries and assists being a bit sticky to keep them from slipping, Works like a charm, easy to get off when they are torn or worn out!
