Open the app on your phone, tap the 3 dots in the bottom right hand corner, scroll down and at the very bottom you will find "REPORT PROBLEM"

I would say that is your phone.
I have an S23 and my phone increases battery charge even when using Navigation all day.

Re: Transit custom L2H1 carry a r1200rt minus screen

Yes, I think Stu & Doc T are correct regarding length for a SWB Transit but as yours is a LWB you would be ok.
As an aside I now have a Transit, L1H1 and I regularly carry my trail bike (CRF300L) and it fits in with no problem and not skewed to a side.

Re: Transit custom L2H1 carry a r1200rt minus screen

Yes, it should go in no problem with the screen removed. I have carried mine in a Toyota Hiace which is a smaller van than your Transit.

Re: touring idea

Personally I think that is a very good idea.
Perhaps try to break it down into Countries / Areas to keep things simple to find

Re: Electrics shutdown when I press start button

Sounds to me like a dead battery. Just because it's new doesn't mean it will be fully charged.
Hopefully it's that simple :)

Re: Indoor bike cover

If it's for use inside a garage or shed etc. I use a clean painters dust sheet. Keeps the general crap off the bike, easy to throw over and cheap as chips from Screwy (or similar)

Re: Would you feel safe?

The concept seems to be good.
I think, because it's an unknown, being wary is a natural reaction. It would be interesting to know what safety standards it can meet.
I imagine it would be a great asset to 1st aiders in the event of an accident.

Think this is a good summary:-) You have 3 levels of adjustment on the RT system, distant, more distant and a long way back In reality the factory settings are, extremely close, very close and close. I asked my dealer whether the distances could be increased because at motorway speeds the maximum s...
