Just to clarify, when you say a '2014' bike, are you referring to a late 'TwinCam' air/oil-cooled model or an early 'LC' bike? I have a heated rear seat available. BMW part number 52538544790. Would fit any watercooled R1200/1250RT, from 2014 to current bike model. Motorworks are asking £145, but th...

I've got these down in my garage workshop: https://www.costco.co.uk/search?searchOption=uk-search-all&text=garage%20floor&q=garage%20floor:relevance:brand:Klikflor They were easy to fit and are very hard-wearing. They've been down about 6 years and show no sign of wear. I do have a rubber-ba...

Where in the UK are you located?

I have some made-to-measure leather trousers from Scott Leathers in Barnard Castle. Very good quality and not too expensive (although I've had them a few years now).

They may be a BMW-only part.

From memory, I think I obtained a used one from Motorworks. Check part fitment carefully - I think the upper and lower pins are a slightly different length and diameter.

I also bought some 'beefier' E clips. The original BMW ones are a bit thin and flimsy.

Several other riders, myself included, have reported this problem.

The t...

I've bought non-BMW blank keys from eBay in the past and tried to get them cut at Timpsons and a couple of local locksmiths. My experiences: a) The eBay blanks are not of the same quality as BMW keys. The blade material is not as hard. I have no experience of the Motorworks blanks. b) High street lo...
