I am fairly new to biking (3 months), and I am in love with my R1200R. A friend got me into biking and I bought a 2005 R1150R in January. 3 Weeks later, I saw a 2007 R1200R in brilliant condition and bought it. Sold the R1150R.
Then I decided to get what I wanted in the first place, and got a brand new Classic. Guess to say I have gone biking mad would be a bit of an understatement. :D
Looking forward to chat with like-minded people, i.e. R1200R lovers.

Sorry for the delay in getting this up! All sorts of things have been happening recently :O I have just about completed my thesis, I've been teaching classes at my university, I got accepted to a Ph.D. program at the University of Maryland, and I got engaged! :D Not to mention a recent trackday at Chuckwalla (and a recent high-side :P)! Busy, busy, busy...

Anyways here she is, my motorcyclist survey. It is pretty straight-forward; nothing is designed to trick you. It is through a survey website used by my university (California State University, San Bernardino) called Qualtrics. You do not have to provide any personal information, and I will not ask you to do so. I will not be able to link any responses to any participants. It is 100% anonymous. Here is the link:

Of course, thank you all very much for participating! The survey should not take longer than 10 minutes.

My Lovely R1200R will be almost one year old, and I have not put the key on a key chain ever.
I used to have an aluminum key chain for my previous bike but that scratched all around the key while riding.
In the not so intense search for a nice key chain that won't scratch my bike, I finally found one that's I think perfect.
And here it is.
What do you think?

I've owned many BMW's over the years, airhead and oilheads, and have over 300,000 BMW miles on the saddle, and this bike is by far the best bike I've ever owned. I bought it in '08 with 8,000 miles on it.

The manual is not helping me learn to reset this function and I'm certain there is a way.

If you know how to do this, please let me know.

Also, I like to leave it on the TPM display, but it was auto resetting for total mileage. I suppose this is a program to remind you of a service interval. In my case it was the 600 mile first service and once I had it serviced, it stays on the TPM.

Is there a way to over ride this function too? ]]> BMW R1200R General Discussions Snapping Twig http://www.r1200rforum.com/forum/bmw-r1200r-general-discussions-7/computer-question-915/
