Tourbike Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Has anyone purchased the CDROM service manual for the R1200RT? How is it? [edit: removed portion of post that was an advertisement] Link to comment
Ernie2 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I really like the R12RT maintenance cd. It is an improvement over the one for the 1150 GS. The cd also covers the R12GS. Both American and European models. Ernie Link to comment
cjmkerns Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Ernie, What does one do to get one of these things? Regards, Carl Link to comment
Ernie2 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Ordered mine through the dealer. I believe it was about $125. I have a feeling that BMW wised up to downloading a copy of there CD's on line. I copied the 1150GS cd to my hardrive with no problems, but was unable to with the new R12RT cd. It does sound expensive but worth the price when doing your own servicing and maintenance. Ernie Link to comment
David_S Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Ernie I run the new manual from my hard rive. I created a folder and copied the entire contents of the CD to the folder and run it from there by clicking the correct icon (actually I created a short cut to the icon on my desktop). I think the older versions allowed you to copy just the pdf file in the language you wanted. Link to comment
CraCol Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 What does one do to get one of these things? I oprdered mine from Moto-Bins in the UK http://www.motobins.com/search.php Showed up in MO in about a week, at half the dealer cost in the US. Craig Link to comment

Buccaneer Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Sorry, didn't spot this bit on the front page: Important Notice: this web site cannot be used for ordering parts right now. There is no date set for when this site is going to be up and running. All I can say is that it will definitely be more than 6 months. The prices will be changed once that happens and the actual prices will be posted. Currently the prices on this site don't really mean much, they and provided for reference only. Expect 20-30% higher prices at your dealer. My bad. Link to comment
