backfiring

I have owned my 2010 R1200RT since 2021. Whenever I blip the throttle, it backfires. Otherwise, it hasn't given me any major problems that I couldn't easily solve.

Has anyone else had the same issue?

Re: In Mexico with a "check oil" message

How did that work out for you?
I have a 2010 R1200RT and have had the yellow warning with oil symbol a few times.

All I had ro do was add oil.

Now I keep a bottle of engine oil in one of my bags.

New rear tire

I have a new Metzeler rear tire on the way to replace a worn one. I live in an apartment so I have no access to a garage. Does anyone know of a reliable shop in the South Florida area (Hollywood/ Ft. Lauderdale) that won't charge dealership prices to swap out the tire?

Re: Torque Wrench


I have a MannesMan 1/2" (10-210 NM)  and a Pro 1/4" (0-20 NM).

I purchased both in the Netherlands.
