BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Going to carry the helmets on in helmet bags. But the riding gear consist of a Aerostitch Roadcrafter 1pc, a Darien jacket / pant combo, two pair of boots / gloves / rain gloves, etc, etc. Two people traveling with gear to Europe. Can't really wear that stuff on board. :) Does anyone know of a airli...

Anyone have experience flying airlines and gear bags that may be slightly oversized? Leaving for Europe for some riding Thursday and was packing my gear bag over the weekend when a zipper gave out. Found one through Amazon Prime and had it Monday and things were great, as it was larger than the one ...

The RT LC has 2 power sockets (one at the front and the other at the rear)

The one at the front should work. It's for a GPS that will mount between the bars. Trying to figure enough line length without having a ton of excess. Where abouts is the front socket located?

Thanks for the input

Thanks for all the help folks! Went with the Wunderlich adapter to screw into the handlebar and a Ram ball stud to screw into that. Have a Ram suction cup mount as a backup. Looks like an easy clean set up that will take minimal tools to install / remove. Now I need a bit of an assistance with a pow...

Links no good. Can you double check that?

Thanks for all the replies! In regards to those suggesting I use another Nav, or use the tours.... I have my own. A Garmin  276cx that I want to use. We're doing a week of car, and then the bike tour. Maps are all loaded onto the 276 and I'd like to have the tracks for the bike tour days. I...

I'm taking a Europe tour end of Aug and will be riding a '16 or '17 RT1200. I want to mount my Garmin 276cx with a RAM mount and the tour operator / bike rental outfit will let me mount the unit to their bike, just can't damage anything. That shouldn't be too hard, I'm looking for something that wil...
