Re: 1250rt, Vibrating sound on 6th gear

A few days ago I received a response directly from BMW (not a dealership). Here’s what they said:

“ This is a common phenomenon. It’s a slight resonance in the drivetrain, caused by the uneven rotational motion of the driveshaft. It should diminish after lowering the suspension. It’s necessary to ...

Re: OMG What is that noise!

No I haven’t heard it prior to the 1st service, neither immediately after. In fact, first time I heard that sound was after I installed the large windshield, I suspect I just couldn’t hear it before because of the wind noise. Don’t think it’s windshield related though, because now I can hear it ...

Re: OMG What is that noise!

Hi there!
No, I have not been replacing left cam chain tensioner. The engine and gearbox are brand new, in the state that they came from the factory, I just did the first service and that’s all. I think I have made about 600km since I first heard the sound, so far it hasn’t gone…
Thank you for the ...

Re: OMG What is that noise!

First of all, I appreciate your response.
The only thing frustrating me is that the noise is only on the 6’th gear. As soon as I switch to 5’th, or any other gear, it disappears immediately. I tried the same rpm and speed on different gears, only the 6’th is affected. I can sometimes hear similar ...

Hello there!
I’ve got a problem with my 2023 r1250rt, which I thought someone has maybe encountered before.
The bike is from dealership, I’m the first owner, it now has around 3000 km on the odometer.
Recently I’ve installed the BMW comfort windshield in place of the small “sport” one, and now on ...

Re: Adaptive cruise control

I like it a lot. Use it all the time here in Poland.
Unfortunately, at least on my brand new 1250rt 2023, the distance setting is constantly being reset after I switch the bike off, so bb I have to adjust it all the time back to my settings each time I start a ride.
