Thanks for taking us along on the colorful autumn ride. I sold my last bike (Bonneville) when I stopped riding 7 years ago at age 65, but still miss it - especially every springtime, like right now in May. Ken in Bellingham, WA.

hey! I didn't understand very well. How much fork oil wears the electronic telescopic, por favor?
@bakingbiker
@bakingbiker 3 ай бұрын
According to the manual, the left fork with the electronic cartridge takes 304 ml and the right fork takes 682 ml of 10W fork oil.

He put on a Wunderlich handle bar with Heli bar risers (the Heli bar risers are for the R1200R not the RS). It required re-routing the clutch hose behind the triple clamp. I hope this helps.

I’ve had my 2016 R1200RS from new. I too find my ESA rear shock too bouncy in ROAD mode especially two up. As the miles have risen DYNAMIC seems to have become less firm and I now use it all the time. Thank you for your fork video. I plan on doing mine. I’m also thinking of renewing the seals while I’m at it at 44,000 miles. Does the lhs leg come apart the same as the rhs one? Peter
@bakingbiker
@bakingbiker 4 ай бұрын
Yes, they come apart the same. You just have to deal with the wire on the lhs (it's attached to the cartridge inside). Good luck on the seals.

What time of year was your tour and which IMTBike Tour was this? Thanks for sharing. A few years back I actually rode from Spain to Portugal along Door River on bicycle. I always said to myself someday I'll come back and do it on motorcycle. Some great twisty roads.

We took the tour in mid-late April. It was the Portugal & Central Spain Motorcycle Tour Land of Conquistadors. I highly recommend taking an IMTBike tour. We plan to take another next spring. Here's a link to their website: www.imtbike.com/

Great video. Curious how your experience was flying with multiple stops from U.S. to Madrid. Any issues with checked luggage and all the bike gear? Anything get lost or delayed? Did you carry helmets with you or in checkin bag? I am in Wash./DC area and surprise I cannot get a direct flight to either Madrid or Malaga.
@bakingbiker
@bakingbiker 7 ай бұрын
Since we live in the Seattle area, there aren't any direct flights to Spain. My husband and I are both skiers so we used our ski boot bags for all our motorcycle gear, including our helmets. We used the padding from our jackets and pants to pad the helmet. Those bags were checked in. We didn't have any problems with our checked luggage. We flew British Airways with a 3 hour layover in London Heathrow. I always plan a 3-4 hour layover at Heathrow in case there are any delays with our flight, and the time to go through passport control, customs, and terminal changes. There aren't any direct flights to Spain from Sea-Tac Airport. I'm surprised you can't find a direct flight to Madrid from the east coast. If you go, have a great trip. Motorcycling in Spain and Portugal was beautiful and fun. Most drivers are motorcycle friendly. Here's a link to IMTBike's website: www.imtbike.com/

We traveled with IMT bike on a self guided tour of Northern Spain. It was quite an adventure. My wife and I rode our own motorcycle which we had shipped from Canada. We had been riding in Europe for nearly eight weeks when we arrived in Spain to meet some friends who had come over from Canada. The friends rented motorcycles from IMT bikes. We rode from Barcelona to Northern Spain via the Pyrenees. What an adventure. I hope your trip went well.

so let me get this straight you have to make a reservation to use a state highway just because it goes through a national park what is a person to do if you do not have a reservation
@bakingbiker
@bakingbiker Жыл бұрын
The reservations are only on busy times of the year. If you don’t have a reservation, you have to take an alternate route. Our National Parks are getting so crowded with tourists that there are traffic jams and not enough parking available, so they now have to limit the amount of vehicles entering. Check with each National Park for their entry requirements.

Спасибо за ваше видео! Мне заменили масло на сервисе и вилка стала очень жёсткой... Мне залили масло с вязкостью 7,5W. Заметил что вы использовали 10W, такое требование в инструкции? У вас очень милый и весёлый помощник ;-) Привет из Киева. ________ Thanks for your video! I had the oil changed at the service and the fork became very stiff ... I was filled with oil with a viscosity of 7.5W. I noticed that you used 10W, is this a requirement in the instructions? You have a very nice and cheerful assistant ;-) Greetings from Kiev.
@bakingbiker
@bakingbiker Жыл бұрын
Yes, BMW specifies 10W fork oil, which typically has a higher viscosity than 7.5W fork oil. I'm not sure what made the fork feel stiff, but maybe because you used a different brand of fork oil. Sorry I couldn't become more helpful.
