• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Siting up dash

    I’ve run my RT through the winter mainly on just short trips. I now have some misting in the dash in front of the speedo and the tacko. I know BRP will change the unit under warranty but is it worth getting it changed. I can’t see the misting when it’s switched on. I typed Misting up Dash...

    SM10 PROBLEMS

    Continuing my saga with my cantankerous SM10 in a recent conversation on UKSPYDERWEB I have been told the latest update for Sena headsets, in my case the 10S, allows music sharing and phone call sharing. Has anybody done this and if so how. If true I can bin the SM10 I have some news that for...

    It would be nice to know how many forum members are my side of the pond. Is there any way of telling?

    THEY ALL. CLUNK BUT WHY

    So far as I know and definately my 17 RT Limited all make a loud clunk when engaging first or reverse from neutral. I had hoped after years of this on a BMW I would have it no more. But what is it. Is it the gearbox, the drive chain or even the clutch. If I knew I could teach myself to forget...

    Sena SM10 Auto power on/off

    This I'm sure has been discussed before but I can't figure it out. I have read you can remove or at least unplug the internal battery in the SM10 and this will allow the unit to automatically power up when you turn on the ignition and shut off when you do. Problem is mine is mounted in the...

    ALARM SYSTEM

    Is there an approved alarm system available for the RT. Having always had them on two wheels just having an immobiliser feels a bit vonerable.

    SM 10 pairing

    I have a Sena SM10 fitted which is paired to two 10Ss. Is there an ideal sequence for activating them. Is it best to switch on ignition and then switch on the headsets or the other way round. We are finding they don't always pair or just one will. We have to switch off the headset and...

    DOS AND DONTS

    On the advise for new owners there is a warning to not leave your screen in its lowest position all the time as this can lead to the failure of the bottom arm. That apparently results in a huge bill. I have done about 750 miles in the last couple of weeks akways with it all the way down and...

    FUEL GUAGE ACCURACY

    Up to now on my BMW I've been used to having a fuel guage that counts down the miles left to run. Now with just a traditional guage to go by I was wondering how accurate it is. Run it to empty do I shudder to a stop or like the BMW it runs for at least 20 miles when it says zero.

    Small Problem With Bluetooth

    I'm new to Bluetooth having used Autocom wired systems in the past. On my still very shiny new RT I have fitted a Sena SM10 and 10S headsets. Iv'e got it all working with the radio/USB music and the Garmin coming through the SM10 and the two headset paired together. However I don't seem to be...

    Checking Coolant Level

    9 days into ownership I've got to the page in the handbook about checking the coolant level. So I've opened the front and found the panel to remove. Book says remove rivet. HOW. Do you twist, push, attack with a screwdriver or what. Won't do anything for me.

    Corrosion Issues or Not

    Have just become the proud owner of RT Limited after 21 years on BMW tourers it's heartening to see there are not dozens of posts relating to corrosion issues. BMW seem very prone to them. Are there any problem areas or are they properly built in the first place. Mine for sure is very...

    BULBS

    The handbook for my 2017 Limited has confused me. Been digging round the house for spare bulbs and the book is not too clear . Rear indicators are shown as 21W. As they are behind clear lenses they are orange. This normally means the pins are offset. True or false? Dipped headlight is shown...

    GET IT TOMORROW

    Hi everyone. After 21 years on BMW bikes I have taken the plunge. So far I've had a 10 minute demo ride which was scary. Tomorrow I have a 50 mile ride home on twisty roads which should sort me out. It's an RT Limited in grey. Wish me luck. Looking forward to getting lots of info here.
