I've just sold my GSA 1250 and my 1200 R to buy a R1250RT triple black. Pick it up next week... and I can't wait 🙂

You are spot on everything. I'm a harley guy but bought a rt last yr. Most comfortable bike I've ever been on and that boxer engine is absolutely great.

Love love, love your review very honest very accurate and you could tell comes your heart is a true writer. Appreciate it. Keep up the work brother.

Very good review. Sometimes KZfaq reviewers are just complaining to complain. They want no vibration, no wind and no noise. For that just get in your car. 😂. They forget they're on a motorcycle. All those things is what make bikes fun. I hv a 21 bmw s1000xr with about 15k on the clock. In a couple of years I'll be ready for another bike and will certainly consider an RT 1250/1300.

Great review thanks. I run a 2018 RT which I bought used its just passed 40k miles with no issues other than servicing and tyres. Since the 1250 was introduced the earlier 1200 has became relatively affordable. Appreciate your bike is the later model which I’ll likely trade up to in a year or two. These are just such an amazing bike 👍

I bought a GSA last year. Sat on a new RT at the dealer yesterday and wow - it was a perfect fit. I need to test ride one. If it’s as good as it looks, I can see getting rid of 2 bikes and having just the RT. Love the boxer on the GSA.

@thedirtyguzzi9268 Жыл бұрын

See if a local dealer has one that you can test ride. I really wish I had test rode one a long time ago. I rode 12 hours one day a combination of interstate and backroads. Having all of that wind protection, the adjustable windshield, smooth ride, and some music to listen to was great. Let me know what happens! Ride safe!

This is a great review. Thanks for the detail. Currently, I am riding a 2009 K1300GT and I just passed 108K miles. Before this one, I had a 2007 K1200GT which had 130K before I sold it. So, clearly , I. like to ride. A lot. I've been eyeing the R1250RT and it looks like an amazing machine. The K1600 is just too big and heavy and I believe the maintenance costs are going to be too much. It's just that the R1250RT is so much money. When the time comes to get a new bike, I'll be looking at used ones as well as new. Thanks again.

Thank you for great review , I just picked up mine this Sat. So far feels great. I miss my 2014, but that's what I said when I replaced 2009.... They are the best bikes money can buy Ride on

Nice review. I've got the 2018 model decked out just like yours. Just a phenomenal bike. Also have a 2017 T120 Black and it's starting to collect dusk in the garage as the RT is such a great bike to ride. If you plan on putting 100K on the bike, my only recommendation is to not wait on upgrading the seat to a Russell Day Long. I too am 5'8" and started with the stock low seat, then to a Sargent, and when I got the RDL last year it was transformative for long days in the saddle. Made Life a Ride!

@thedirtyguzzi9268 Жыл бұрын

I was looking at those seats recently. I may give it a try. I rode 1400 miles in 4 days a week a ago. On the last day my back side was getting a little tender lol

Just want to say that you did a good job with the review. I felt like I was riding along with you the whole way and just sitting back talking about the bike. You'd probably make a good radio DJ or documentary narrator as well. It comes natural to some people. Anyways, I'm still riding Harleys but I'm liking these BMW's.

Hi there from Scotland! Nice common sense review on the RT as a mile muncher. Well done Fella. I have a 2022 in blue. Totally agree about the people moaning about the four pre programme buttons. Get over it and just enjoy the ride. Thanks for sharing the vid. Stay safe.

Never had the previous models but the lights on this model are good at night.

Just watched the review..awesome job thx…question on the BMW navigation via phone in the turn by turn mode: once you select a destination, start riding then 1/2 way into the destination you lose phone service…does the navigation stop working?? Or does it is have a memory to finish the trip till ya get reception again and arrive at the destination??. I have a white 2017 R1200RT and love it, zero complaints…I read so many negatives on the newer models with the TFT dash for connectivity and software issues. My concern if I ever decide to upgrade to a newer RT. I often ride in the PA Mountains where there is limited cell service in many areas-love my GPS!! Ride safe.

@thedirtyguzzi9268 Жыл бұрын

It keeps the route if you lose reception. I wish they would have made it an actual gps. Thats why I decided to install the ball mount for the TomTom. I never really used the large map screen. It's a big distraction. Ride safe.

Great review but regarding the phone -if you use an android it connects to nav and displays maps automatically - the iphone has very poor connectivity issues. Its worse on the K16 due to the location of the phone storage but BMW are aware and looking into this. Cheers Ride safe👍🏻

@thedirtyguzzi9268 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the info. Yeah I heard that the android connects better. I use the turn by turn instructions most of the time. I use my tomtom when I go on longer trips in poor cell reception areas.

@dannygill3943 Жыл бұрын

I’m considering this bike and an apple user.. is this a big enough deal to consider other bikes or is this definitely the right bike with or without the phone connectivity issues?

@22Royston Жыл бұрын

@@dannygill3943 I have a K16, the issue is more pronounced on that bike but even then not enough to not buy one - it’s a fantastic machine. The Android phone performs very well on the RT and connects automatically- there is also a work around to get it to function correctly on the K series- so deffo get the bike and a non sim cheap second hand Android for the RT and enjoy 👍🏻

@thedirtyguzzi9268 Жыл бұрын

@@dannygill3943 I wouldn't let the phone connectivity issue keep you from purchasing the bike. It's a great bike. You can do any type of street riding you want. Its stable on the highway also. The weather protection is awesome. I never really use the full map mode. The bluetooth turn by turn works great and uses less battery and lets me keep my main phone in my pocket. That giant map is a big distraction in my opinion. All other connectivity such as music from your phone and cardo work great.
