BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Greetings from Florida:

My name is Robert.  I went to the dealership on my 06 RT to check out the new LC RT.  Holy smokes what a difference.  I left the dealership on a new 14 RT.  I have two other bikes a G650GS and a 2012 Harley Dyna with an upgraded suspension.

I am smitten with the new RT.  To me, it is the best bike I've ever owned.  I get more smiles per mile with the new RT than any other bike I've ever owned.  It gets HOT living in FL, but the upside to that is I can ride 12 months per year!

Welcome to the forum Robert, from sunny Sydney, Australia.

Welcome Robert, can we share some of your sunshine here in the UK please !

Welcome aboard Robert!


Although we haven't had much snow yet this year here in New York, the temperatures are taking some of the spontaneity out of riding! My Brother lives in Florida and tells me what the temperature is just about every day...I send him pictures from the ski slopes and snow mobile trails.


Thank God (and BMW) for heated seats, grips and my heated vest.


Are you heading to Daytona in March for the Rally? We rode there once and it was a spectacle I'll never forget!

Welcome Robert...

Welcome from not so hot, sunny bloody freezing Francebe

Welcome!  Had a great ride this weekend on my new RT.
