BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

This was an issue on some Triumph triples. The headstock wiring was too short, and also didn’t move freely enough in the clip/guide which kept the loom together causing chafing in some cases and breaks in others. Be worth getting the bike to a point where you can see that loom as you turn the bars.

Thanks for that.

Now at the Mac and left the Nag in the garage...

Works on mine on the flat.

Battery eventually arrived from Garmin. When they said it was i stock they actually meant it wasn’t actually in stock. Fired it up at home, couldn’t find satellites. Didn’t bode well. Slapped it on the bike when I actually remembered to take it. 20 seconds, it found me. If only I had remembered to p...

Wish I’d seen this before buying a TC era topbox!

Thanks for that.

Undecided what to do. Will see if I can find out if they’re D4 or S4.

Did see you can even use the long press of indicator cancel to activate these lights. Never would have thought of that

I noticed that after setting my bike to Dynamics mode with normal suspension and single rider, the bike has default back to Road & Normal, but when I switch to dynamic, it’s got Hard dialled in.

Similar type thing? Late 2017 RT LE.

Took the bike to work today. Getting to learn the width, the further I went, the easier the gaps got. Also never used a heated bike seat before. Definite winner. Grips and seat around half heading in to Mcr this morning made a pleasant ride. Need to work out why I’m gripping the bars differently, as...

What button on the right switch gear? I use the fob to do the CL.

It’s the last bit of travel where mine kicks in but needs a rapid intentional pull. I assume it’s a feature not to have the brake held on after heavy braking, so making it a deliberate action.

Washed it for the first time. Do the little clear plastic bits over the mirrors pop off? There’s lots of awkward bits to get to it seems! And the water in the mirror pods, and the water that runs out when you put it back on the side stand…. Definitely need a blower for it. Oh, and just spotted my eB...

And this is where my impatience gets me

Has nobody had a colour match done,put into aerosol and done it themselves. Cost around £20 a can.Good mixer will get the match spot on,then it's fairly straight forward from there.Touched up my T4 that way,perfect match :thumb: Sounds attractive, but I've only painted walls before, it could end up...

I actually took the time to look through my menu! 10 days and never bothered. What did I learn? Heated stuff is way along the options. I now have a digital speedo I didn’t spot how to reset Trip 1 and Trip 2 The Wonder Wheel will take a little getting used to before it’s natural. Seems to be the odd...

Not sure on the make, but anything you add into a can bus loop needs to register with the system or it throws up an error or just doesn't work :oops: So you need to add an aftermarket set up to allow for the extra items, although you could probably replace the OEM units with those? They’re definite...
