BMW R1250RS crash…my poor girl
Переглядів 1,9 тис.2 роки тому
The subject bike of a few of my videos and I were involved in a severe crash on the freeway in early April 2022. Texting driver drifted into the center median spinning back onto the freeway taking me out in the process. Caught it out of the corner of my eye and managed to avoid right but obviously not enough. I broke my left shoulder (requiring surgery), 11 ribs, left foot, right leg, collapsed...

Wunderlich Marathon windshield for BMW R1250RS
Переглядів 33 тис.3 роки тому
I'm confusing about low and high positions. What I meant to convey was in the lower mounting holes the windshield is a better version of stock airflow in low and high positions. In the upper holes the low position gives airflow at chin level while the upper position gives total protection but also air at the sleeves. A quick review of Wunderlich's Marathon windshield for the BMW R1250RS.

BMW Panniers and Topcase on an R1250RS
Переглядів 35 тис.4 роки тому
Just a quick basic look at how the BMW Panniers and Topcase look on an actual motorcycle. I think real life images of these are surprisingly hard to find. Additionally, ordering these is very confusing especially with regard to color. You can run across asphalt gray, granite gray, black storm metallic, red, and primer. My biggest concern was getting the top case to match the panniers because mo...
Jump Starting a 2015 BMW R1200RT Motorcycle

This is for the "wethead" 2014-2018 R1200RTs and possibly the R1250RT. It's NOT for 2013 and earlier. Stuck in a parking lot doing a search didn't return many if any useful results for this bike. Always consult your owners manual if available.
Musical Road in a Ferrari 360
Переглядів 1007 років тому
This is video of us driving my Ferrari 360 on the musical road in Lancaster, CA in 2014. My wife's commentary is funny (at least to me). Sorry about the jerkiness but she's videoing with an iPhone. The tune is supposed to be William Tell.
I have the same motorcycle in a 2022 model...and love it! I don't understand the negative comments. No motorcycle is perfect, but this one comes close. The 10.25" TFT is great and functions very well. I have the same connectivity issues as everyone else but if you research it, some of the issues can be overcome. The 1250RT is a really great motorcycle.
Hello! Do I understand correctly that the pants also comply with the CE 13595 standard? And at the same time do not have leather pads on the buttocks?
Well they had similar armor. As fas as leather I don't know as I no longer have them.
Hello it's the same for me in France ! Exactely
Have had a pro for over 2 years. Steep hills kill performance. After patching a few tubes I bought and installed some solid tires and it's been great ever since. For the money I paid it's been a terrific ride.
Unplug the USB cable because the usb plug has priority on the charging pad.and won't charge at this manner...
The video shows the cord plugged in but tried many times with no cord.
@@daveyator have you found a solution for this problem?
Weird, my Waze works great when it comes to finding local businesses.
Good ride not playing with useless gizmo's.
I have the x7 max .. underpowered in my opinion
Very helpful..thanks!
Yep. My 2024 RT will not charge my iPhone 14 either.
Anyone know where to get a battery for the turboant x7pro
Dude literally said its "hard to do" when he had to turn his phone sideways... lol this is the MMI PRIME. The MMI PRO os available now. Edit: Not having a touch screen is really not as bad as this guy is making it out to be. This dude lives life glass half empty for sure.
Sorry I came across that way. I like how it allows use of the original screen and controls.
I think the 2014 and up have the touch pad on the idrive controller so you can just write with your finger what numbers you want to enter. Like a laptop mouse or ps5 controller.
This was a 2014 5 series.
Thank you 👍😀
I use an old Galaxy S20 purely for the purpose of connected app and have no issues. Fits nicely and charges wirelessly ok. I personally like my phone in my pocket.
so far all the issues mentioned appear to be apples issues and not bimmer tech's as bimmer tech is mearly running apples carplay or android auto, and the screen mirror issue is simple because it is a screen mirror so what ever is happening on your phone is what you will see on the screen of your BMW.
Markus my iPhone 11 charges fine , however I think the wireless charging technology changed after the 11 From Qi to Mag Safe and I don’t think our arts support Mag Safe , if someone more tech competent than me then please let me know but this is my understanding why it doesn’t work on models later than 11 … which is a bugger if you want to upgrade your phone. Next option is to use cable from USB port inside compartment but need to get one with a 90degree bend to fit well and the phone has to be smaller Like a iPhone 15
really stupid review, I mean i get it that you get annoyed with using dial to navigate between apps but you highlighted stupid things which doesn't really matter
Thanks for your thoughtful critique.
They're 21.99 on Aliexpress 😂😂😂
Same issues here
Amen! I realized this in the first ride and just hardwired. I use a wunderlich phone mount because the bmw app is overbearing if you’re using a mesh headset and overall useless. Why not just equip the bike with Apple car play and the android equivalent. Heck I’ll pay $200 for the upgrade. A major technology fail on an otherwise beautiful riding machine.
Yup, ive a 1250rt brand new and i cant get my apple14+ to fit properly and cant connect a lead to charge and the difficulty getting it back out...tried using my phone in my breast pocket and used to blue tooth to connect but my phone was hot cos it was blue toothing to the bike, i stopped using it...
Just use the charging cable. Might be an Apple thing. Gave up on Apple years ago. Have no problem charging my Android.
Nice! Purrs like a kitten 👍
Works for a 2021 R1250RT as well. Thanks.
Is it possible to get a CIC screen to work in a NBT car?
Thank you, my "open" latch is stuck on my side box. Is there a way to open the mechanism and fix it? Thank you for your help in advance.
I don’t have these anymore so I can’t directly look. Is the lid all the way closed? If not it might be putting pressure on the latch. Maybe make sure the key has gone full travel. Sorry can’t help more.
A mi cuando estuve conduciendo empezó a ponerse duro y si se pudo lo desearme y unos simples ajustes y quedoó funcionando bien.😊
I have the same problem and have been hoping for 2 years that there is a solution. First the LED appears green and then it flashes yellow and no longer charges. Tested with iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro. My BMW dealer thinks it is a licence problem between BMW and Apple. The reason is Apple's MagSafe, which is why older devices work. This is incomprehensible to me as the iPhone can also be charged with cheap charging cradles without any problems. I find it cheeky of BMW to sell a motorbike with additional options and conceal the fact that it doesn't work with new iPhones! If I find a solution, I'll post it in the comments.
Mand hvor er den flot. Elsker den nye skærm, de har. Tillykke herfra. Harley og alle de andre kommer ikke engang i nærheden👍👍👌💪
Thanks for the eye-opening personal review. It appears to be more cumbersome than helpful.
Um maybe. But with this older BMW at least you're getting some functionality back rather than staring at a useless display. Better than nothing.
I have a 2012 e93 and installed an MMI box with CarPlay and a backup camera three years ago and I really like the usability of CarPlay over BMW's system. I wish I had installed it sooner.
Me too, I changed my ip12 to ip15 also same thing happened, wireless charger not working properly #motorrad #bmw pls do something
IPhone 15 Pro Max works, modified charger, milled window for camera, fits nicely there
Nice bike! I have a 2024 on order.
The stock windshield just looks wrong! Almost like they intentionally cut a vee notch so you would have to pay for the BMW touring windshield which I assume is mega expensive? If so that is just shameful IMO ...I had to replace the screen on my MT-10 for the same reason forking $250 out to Yamaha for the privlege
Thanks man. I was thinking of putting this in my I8 but after seeing this I think I'd rather use the BMM options and just get a phone holder and use the phone. Good video and lots of info you can't find on other videos.
Interesting, I just installed the box today and I'm so happy. It's much better than the phone holder. Of course, touch would be great, but it's not that difficult to get around with the idrive controls.
Thanks! My GS's top box fits it when expanded. I'll buy a Givi 42L box.
When I said a full face helmet wouldn't fit in the top box, my medium size Arari would "kind of" fit but it was TIGHT. I always had to shift it a bit and frankly rarely put it in there as a result.
What size helmet did you fit? My Shoei XL will not fit at all on the side cases. I want buy the top case but I don't think it will fit.
Full face Arai signet. I had to face the helmet to the rear with maybe a slight turn. It won’t fit in the top case. I actually wound up with one of those helmet combo lock rings attaching it to the grab rail.
What size is the helmet? Mine is XL.
Sorry. It was a medium.
Thx for this useful video, works also on my 2018 R1200RS, battery located on the other side though
This is a paid advertisement. don't trust !!! This scooter has many quality, warranty and customer service problems. The fact that it is not sold on Amazon is more than indicative of all the problems. I bought one more than a year ago and more than 90% of the time it has had all kinds of problems, it hasn't turned on for 5 months and I'm still waiting for a serious response from this company.
NOT a paid advertisement. I have no affiliation or interest in TurboAnt at all. Simply a customer just like you. I too have had a few issues. They took care of one and kinda screwed me on another.
Shift filed for bankruptcy.
Yes. This video is a few years old.
Greets from.AUS. Fantastic bike,you lucky bugger 😁👍 Got an '02 R1150RT that Ive had for about 9 years. I do still like it but Im looking to finally upgrade at some point,probs not for a few years though actually. So by then itll be the 1300RT I guess 😊. But yeah,I do like the 1250. I dont mind the display but I wish it was a little intergrated better,I mean it really does look like a smart phone/tablet stuck on the front. I do dials like the 1200RT had and Im not against the all digi display but yeah,as I said,wish it was intergrated a little better,or finished/fitted in better,you know what I mean Im sure. But what do you think?
If I had it to do over again I'd get a '21 RT. You get the shift cam engine but the old set up which frankly works better than the new tech. As much as I love this bike, I'm completely disappointed with the phone based navigation, the useless radio antenna, and that the nifty wireless charge pad that won't charge iPhones.
@@daveyator Thanks for the reply Yeah, Ive read a few comments on its gps, and the radar speed detection thing. Not all working as it should. Sometimes BMW like to add/try these new things but end up dropping them later. Like the servo assist brakes on my 1150 which they dropped later a few models into the 1200 I believe. So 2021 was the last model that didnt have that set up? Just asking as if I end up going used Id get a 2021 (or 2022?) But again, by the time Id get one maybe the new one (1300RT?) would have fixed/changed that again.
Love the bike. I recently purchased the top case, and I did end up getting the primer version to have it painted to match my bike. My question is for the back rest I see you have to drill the two holes in the painted panel to hold it on. Is this literally all that holds it on? I can't imagine you would drill into the box itself, but I wanted to be sure.
Great upgrade - we also install Apple CarPlay for BMWs over here in the UK!
Thanks
Sorry to see you found out the hard way, like I did. I solved my issues, I traded down to a 2020 1250 :) (no TFT etc). All problems solved, still love it.
Just turn the phone around so the top of the phone is nearest to you. My iPhone 11 wont charge if I put it into the cubbyhole top first but works fine bottom in first. It’s obviously something to do with the position of the charging induction loops.
I've done that many times
20 years ago almost all the BMWs came standard with luggage
My iPhone 12 was doing the exact same thing. What seems to work is to close the compartment door while the light is blinking orange. If you wait a minute or two and open it, you’ll see that it’s now green and charging.
Are you sure you just nit seeing it during the green cycle? If your does great, mine simply doesn't. But I will say, the new pad at least does this. The old pad was not green at all.
hola cuanto mide el parabrisa ??
