Sorry I am in picture. It's kinda like other guys looking at pictures of my wife - it's just weird if I'm not in it.

All the guages should light up all the time. They are backlit with a clear/yellowish light. I assume your GT is new? I would talk to the dealer ASAP.

I know you guys/gals want more shots of the truly gorgeous one.

is surely smiling on me. Every great hero must endure/suffer before he is rewarded. I have been greatly rewarded. I have the new K1200GT, 2004, cc, heated grips/seat, and she is all mine. I have...

That's right, this thing "ain't" over yet. The shipper was supposed to pick up the bike in Mass. on Fri 4/8 and deliver it on Mon. 4/11. I just got an email from the dealer (because I sent him one...

I think I will go up the night before. I have a 3 hour ride on my old bike to trade her in. If I go after work the night before, stay with a friend, then I can be at the dealership when they open. ...

So far, the bike is scheduled to be picked up from MA on April 8 and be delivered on April 11. That works out exactly crappy for me because I am obligated until April 30. The only way I am going to...

I have a 77 R100RS that I just put stock handlebars on. The bars that were on her were higher and wider and swept back a tad. The stock ones are the narrow flat ones. Since installing the stock...

What do you guys think? I am a solo rider who makes about 8-12k per year rallying and frequent commuting. I want reliable fun; my nearest dealer is 2-3 years away. Thoughts from those who have...

I work in the medical field. I say that to preface a question. When you are unsatisfied with your MD, it is very difficult to change docs because of an unwritten rule that one won't take the others...

They said that once they tried to install the throttlemeister, it would not work because the heated grip wire was routed internally in the bar. ????

Cussing and fussing over a brand new high end luxury sport touring masterpiece. BUT, I won't stop fussing until I have nothing to fuss about. I just got off the phone with my dealer. Fri, when he...

You are probably right. Today, the 2nd scheduled(then cancelled) delivery day, it was supposed to be nasty and rainy. It is partly cloudy and mild and GORGEOUS :sick :mad . But hey, such is life....

I, too, have recently switched high to low bars on my 77 RS. She had what I believe were K75 bars that had about 3-4 inches of rise and some "push back". I put on some stock original bars. I must...

Here's the latest. Synopsis: I put a deposit down on a blue KGT with all the goods. My dealer called me to offer the Euro spec GT without the cc, heated grips/saddle (because there are no more...

This is the latest. The dealer convinced me to go ahead and buy the Euro spec bike he has in stock He will discount it further :clap , add the heated seat and grips :thumb , and add a...

I think he is already getting one from a place in Kansas City. That is not the problem. Them problem is him charging me the shipping. He is not knocking that much off the price since I am doing...

I just found out this morning, the day of supposed delivery, that my dealer couldn't install the cc on my(his) new K1200GT. He said that when he tried to install the cc, the wiring harness is...

It's probably because they (BMW Motorrad) goofed up making some of the GTs. My dealer is getting in a GT that has no cruise control, not heated grips or seat. He is installing them once he gets the...

I am a very young man in BMW years - 30. I figure I have many years of learning to go before I am really ready to fully care for a vintage airhead like it should be cared for. I don't have the...

I don't know exactly what a big beemer smile looks like. I was trying to go for that "I'm a BAD mamma jamma, don't mess with me" face.
I would be happy to provide ride reports for the rallies I...

Thank you Lee, I will most certainly do all you suggest.

Any recommendations for the ride home? When I pick up my new bike, it will probably have less than 50 miles. I have a 200 mile ride home. Very little slab, but there are some limited access fast...

I get it now, how could I have been so slow.

2) what is "Dino"?
4) A twinmax is an electronic carb/throttle body balancing tool.
9) A dealer told me that on the new GS, you can't even bleed your brakes without putting in the correct code...
