Is there room near the stock horn location to fit a Nautilis or Stebel horn?

Does the R1200 have one bulb for low and one for high or is it like the R1150 which has one H4 bulb that has low/high setting?

Nice Cortech bags!

I put some Xenons in my 2004 1150R which I purchased from xeonrider. I love the bulbs, but I did have to dill a hole in the housing because the HID bulb is too deep. I wonder if the 1200R is the sa me way.

I just replaced my stock bars with these and I must say the riding position is much better for me. One caveat with the bars is that they are not drilled for heated grips so you must drill a couple of holes. The bars are a little lower than stock and the pullback isn't as much as stock. I feel this h...

I too replaced the OEM plastic connectors on my 2004 with metal. I purchased the Jiffy Tite brand.

I just replaced the whole fuel pump/plate assembly and it was $346 from Hammersley BMW. BMW doesn't sell the fuel pump as a stand alone item so you have to buy the whole unit.

Yes those are Moto-Techniques

This happens to us all. Mine was the transmission output seal.

Mine is a 2004 with 44,000 miles.

1) Fuel Disconnect broke while riding and stained the tranny

2) Trans output seal replaced

3) Ignition Coil

I damaged my front rim on my 2004 severely. I sent it to Woody's Wheel Works in Denver, CO and they overhauled to new for $150.

They are liked by a bunch of GS guys over at advrider.

I do it and I have never had any ill effects.

You could get the Touratech ones for the 1150GS. They come in silver or black I believe.

Can anyone report how the legroom on the r1200 compares to the r1150? I have a 2004 and I sat on the r1200 at BMW Daytona and it seemed to have the same amount of leg room. However I have not actually taken a ride to do a road comparison.

Manual says torque on fuel tank stud nuts is 6 NM. Not much..

Ok...gotcha. The primary upper plugs have the coil on plug. The secondary plugs on both sides are wired to one ignition unit located in the bike.

So I guess one set is coil on plug while the other is not.

Ha...no mine is black. The warranty did not cover the repair. I went ahead and replaced both...they are $80 a piece. I should clarify on the part number stuff. The BMW part number off of the fiche is one thing. The number stamped on the coils is a different one and this is the number they changed fr...

Another vote for Pilot Roads. I tried the Z6's but the mileage wasn't good for me and the rear wore quite unevenly in the center.

I'm going to try the Continental Road Attacks next time.

I just wanted to relate to you my latest maintenance problem/solution. I have a 2004 1150R that has been in service about 2 years and 41,000 miles. Lately the bike has had a slight miss at idle and I noticed a failure in the powerband above 5,000 rpms. I replaced both of the primary ignition coils a...

I have over 40k on my scout with the 13" with no problems.
