BMW R1200R R1150R/T F800 K1200R R1100R/T R1250R RnineT Message Board

Been using Oxford. Can't remember the size but it's one size smaller than the biggest. It fits almost exactly with the panniers. The cover will have little contact with the tank.

The sports screen is in contact with the cover but no sign of scratches so far. 2 years already.

I had the PR3 on my Classic for over a year and 10 k km since day one. Longest distance road was 200 km. Did a few track sessions too. No issues so far.

I'm only about 5' 3", inseam of about 28". My bike is standard configuration with seat height of 800mm. I use it for commuting almost every day. I think it just takes a matter of getting used to it. But your riding condition may differ. I had a Harley for a year, only recent bike that I ca...

Lost rider,

I really love what you did with Roadie together! And thanks for sharing your experiences.

Well here is my comparison between the two, and please excuse me I'm not much of a writer. As I rode away from the dealer I noticed a few major differences right away not nearly as fast, doesn't stop very well and handling yeah right. But I expected these things. A Harley has that cool appeal, all ...

Bought my R1200R the middle of last month and ordered one of these Ceebailey sport screens first thing, waited for delivery, used it almost a full week and then left the engine running and the bike on the kickstand and it rolled over and broke the screen, so I didn't post here mostly from embarrass...

I regretted selling my two-tone R1100R for a very long time. Nothing else satisfy. Now I'm happy again with R1200R Classic, also two-tone!

Just got back from my first ride....Headed west towards Hadrians Wall in Northumberland then cut up North to Kielder via Chollerford. Temperature varied between 8- 12 degrees C so I had a couple of stops for cups of hot tea to thaw out a bit. This bike is a contender for one of the best bikes I've ...

My 2 months old R1200R is doing about 20 km/l (46 MPG (US) or 55 MPG (imp)), urban riding with about 70% of the time on the highway (100 km/h). This morning's ride was astonishingly frugal, with the bike's computer reading about 4.2 l/100km, or 56 MPG(US). It usually matches my actual calculation qu...

I would not be too concerned about tube type wheels if you do simple maintenance on them. Tube type wheels have been around since the beginning of bicycles and motorcycles. Patching a tube vs plugging a flat on the road side is all a matter of skill and perspective. As for running tubes in tubeless...

I love the look of the Classic too. The R1100R I had many years back actually came with spokes wheels as an option and I opted for them as spoked rims are less susceptible to bent rims. And the best part of it is that it can take tubeless tires as the spokes were GS styled. Still waiting to collect ...

Hi all! I'm going to be a new owner of a 2011 R1200R Classic soon! Awaiting collection of my new ride next week. I actually have reservations about the Classic's wheel requiring a tube to be installed for the tires. The dealer had reassured me that I can use all types of tires and I had actually pro...
