Your advise is very valuable Don.
I will order one today. It will also be helpful on my wife's bike.
Have a great day!

Silvio.

Thanks, Steve!

Thank you, Deilenberger.
Wow, that is great to know.
Is it your opinion that the GS-911 is an indispensable tool?
Thank you so much for your advice.
Have a great day.
Silvio.

Thank you!
I hope you had a great time!
Silvio.

Thanks Steve. How do you shorten the sensor?

An upgrade of the firmware was made a week ago but it did not solve it. Thanks Harald. Based on David's comment about the TPS, I did some research and got to a post on how to reset it. It is mentioned on that post that not even the manual has that information. The procedure is: turn on the ignition ...

Thanks David, I appreciate it.
I understand this is very difficult to diagnose.
This is my third 1200R and it has never happened before.

Hi David, that is correct: I start the bike begin riding in any gear release throttle, bike dies turn throttle, bike still dead clutch in and then release clutch, bike still dead only way to get it going again is by pressing the start button. Once that happens, it won't happen again until I stop the...

Lifer, the bike is riding fine, then I untwist the throttle to slow down, there is some decompression and the engine goes off. If I do not clutch in the bike would stop because it has a gear engaged. I many times have started a bike with no battery by rolling down hill in second or third gear (clutc...

No, I do not clutch in unless the engine turns off. That is my problem right now.

Hi Don C, the idling of the bike is proper and it does not stall while it idles. The problem is when it revs down while I let go of the throttle in motion with a gear engaged and that is the only situation. I have a workaround of sorts: if I turn it on and quickly twist the throttle, if it tends to ...

Hi Harald, thank you for you response. The last time I took the bike to the mechanic, he found that the left side hose had a small crack on it and replaced it. That of course did not fix it. The strange thing is that after it happens once, it won't happen again as long as I do not turn the engine of...

Hello everyone, I am looking for some advise: My 2007 R1200R starts fine at the first push of the starter button. I engage first gear and roll off perfectly, however when I let go of the throttle to slow down (not the quick let go to switch gears) there is an explosion and the bike dies on me. After...

Hi all, I saw someone with a Roof Boxer V8 brand helmet yesterday; the chin flips all the way to the back as the brand Shark does. He thinks is the best helmet he ever wore. I understand they are not made or sold in USA and have to be purchased abroad. I was wondering if any of you could provide me ...

Thank you all for your input,
based on your responses, additional research and a good price at Amazon, I decided to go with the Scala Rider Q2 Multiset.

As soon as I receive it and test it, I will post my experience and perhaps be of help to someone else.

Have a great day!
Silvio.

I will check the interphone next!
Thank you.

I am sorry I was not clear, I meant to ask if the lock, once in place, gets in the way of mounting the saddle bags to the bike. I also fit my helmet inside the saddles, but when I drive in the city (NYC) I do not use the saddles to be able to wave in and out of traffic quicker. I appreciate your hel...

awesome!
does it get in the way of your hard saddle bags?
thank you for the link!

Hi there,

I am wondering which is the best way to lock a helmet (and sometimes two) to my 2007 R1200R.
There seem to not be a single pin under the seat for such purpose.
I will appreciate anyone sharing their experiences with me.

Thank you!
Silvio.

thank you all for your responses!
I will check the Cardio Scala and compare it with the Sena.

Bruce, you need to take your wife for a ride.
