OEM ESA Rear Dampener, 2022RT Takeoff
This is a perfect condition OEM item, available for $60 (usd) plus actual shipping costs. It was professionally swapped for aftermarket variant, includes cable. Pulled @ 600mi service. Any race shop can do swap. ESA2 compatible, not 2022RT specific. Paypal preferred.

Re: Ride to Russell Day-Long Saddle Shop
That looks a super comfortable seat and that's some step up between rider and pillion. The pillion seat indeed sits proud for several reasons. Seat wing width to address pressure points on butt, seat wing clearance w/ grab-rail and foot-peg rise to address wifey's leg numb. Function over form on th...

Ride to Russell Day-Long Saddle Shop
From PDX to Shasta Lake ~420 miles so just under 900 miles round trip...bike now has a little over 2k miles on the clock...does not burn any oil which speaks to successful break-in. Cannot thank Jay at Russell Day-Long Saddles and his team enough for the stellar service and quality product... https:...
Re: Gloves
For winter wouldn't you rather have the longer ones? I cannot use short gloves even in the summer. Dear-Skin w/ Gauntlets...unlined...best for all seasons 'cept heat of summer where finger-less dear-skin work nicely. https://www.foxcreekleather.com/deerskin-and-elkskin-gloves-vs-cowhide-gloves/ Hig...

Re: Gearbox Oil Twincam RT
Did my own RT service at 600-miles because local dealer was slammed...per BMW K54 service manual, rear drive uses Hypoid G3 which is not cheap.
Is this the same stuff being discussed in this thread?

Re: R1250RT TFT Navigation - Optimizing Map Startup Time
Answer is no,but leaving the bike alive and stopping motor seems like best solution wondering however what battery demand is to date it withstands easily 10-minute stops... Navigation button when programmed in favorites works very nice for quick selection on the run...

R1250RT TFT Navigation - Optimizing Map Startup Time
This topic should be smart-phone agnostic for sequence steps necessary to launch navigation mapping more efficiently...this is a struggle for time when traveling and making a quick stop. Observation...the bike's WiFi will not launch until one scrolls deep in navigation menu to invoke map setup...thi...

New '22 1250RT - Triple Black
This is my 2nd RT, my first was a '97 RT and recently sold to make room for the new one. The evolution is impressive particularly with respect to ride capability when fully loaded w/ pillion + top box. Since taking her off the dealer lot two weeks ago, the bike has undergone a Tractive rear suspensi...
