BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

Firstly I'm at 200,000km and looking to replace my cam tensioner(s) - annoying ticking and mileage - and wanted to know:

1. Is this something I can EASILY do myself i.e access and,

2. would an aftermarket part be suggested and if so site suggestions.

Yes very easy to replace both the tensioners just unscrew them and screw the new ones in with a new washer and to the correct torque

I would personally stick the the OEM parts
