Re: 2008 R1200R leak
I'm reopening this thread for good reason - mine has been dripping lately. It's the canister vent line. Will the liquid fuel in the canister simply evaporate and be drawn out of the charcoal as the bike is used, or does liquid fuel damage the canister contents such that I can expect dripping until t...

I tried threading the F800GS clamps into the R1200R brackets, but the threads are a different size. (I suspect the R1200R brackets changed after 2007...
