BMW R-Series description

The brutal Summer heat is over! The best riding season for touring through the Texas Hill Country is just beginning. Wind through the landscape on the best touring machine available. Silver 2008 BMW R1200RT. Well FARKLED! Under 38000 miles. This is the best handling bike I've ridden. Take this through an ERC, and you will handle the course better than bikes half the size. A perfect commuting bike at only just north of 500lbs. Or run down 1431 for a spirited sprint to dinner in Marble Falls. Then pack the saddle bags and the trunk, and head out to the (far away) coast for a run up HWY 101. This ride will eat up the miles. Here's some of the features:
electric adjustable wind screen.
Heated grips and saddle.
Wiring and controls for heated garments (sounds odd in Texas - but makes the January rides comfortable as well as fun).
Garmin 550 Zumo GPS keeps you on track.
Radar scanner to alert you to "bears".
OEM Low saddle.
OEM Standard heated saddles.
Moto-Lights additional driving lights.
Hyper-lites integrated flashing brake lights and LED turn signals.
Cylinder head guards.
Additional bar-mounted mirrors.
Brake pedal extension.
49-Liter Top Case and a 28-liter Top Case for those lighter loads.
TPMS system.
On board computer.
Electronic Suspension Adjustment.
Cruise control.

The Bad:
TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) Sensor for rear wheel is not working. Easy replacement when the rear tire is replaced next.
Slight scratches on hard bags from boots mounting and dismounting.

The solution to a pricey GPS mount

Wed, 26 Aug 2009

So you've gone out and bought your BMW R1200GS, you're ready to circumnavigate the globe's toughest roads - or ride over some potholes on your way to work - but you've got a dilemma: no way to mount your GPS device! So what you should do is exactly what this chap's done and use a spatula and a few rubber bands to mount-up your GPS for easy use. And the bonus is that when you get to where you're going, you can use the spatula with your BBQ and triple it up as a fly-swatter too.

2014 BMW R1200RT Spied Testing

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

With the new 2013 BMW R1200GS now launching worldwide, it really should be no surprise BMW is working on more models using the GS’s new liquid-cooled boxer engine. A contributor to French site MotoMag happened upon a crew of test riders on heavily camouflaged test mules of what appears to be the 2014 BMW R1200RT. The swirly camo pattern does little to hide the new “precision cooling” liquid-cooled engine, easily identified by the pipes exiting from the bottom of the cylinders.
