Thanks for this! I found that on the 2020 R1250RT I took out the two screws under the windshield above the Nav unit. That allowed me enough slack to lift the nav socket panel up enough to slide the key fob in about an inch. That did it for me. Not necessary to remove the speaker as it shows in the manual.
Hi, I need your help! I recently replaced a key battery for my 2013 R1200RT but i cant find any information how to connect the key to the bike now, so i cant switch the alarm on!! Any ideas please!!
First I would check to make sure the battery is installed properly. Then maybe try another battery. On my water-cooled RT I simple changed the battery and everything worked. No need to re-sync or anything. If that doesn’t work, I’d call the closest dealer and ask their advice. Good luck!

Great video! Very Useful!
Thanks for the comment!
Good to know. Few weeks ago i wanted take bike for 1st spin of the year.an battery was dead.but shops were open so spin was just delayed a wee bit
A good tip is to replace batteries each year and carry an extra with you. Maybe your buddy will need the extra battery. Thanks for the feedback.
What type of saddle do you have there?
That’s a Russell Day Long. I highly recommend it!

Hey brother great tutorial 👍
Any wisdom of finding side panniers for my 09 BMW r1200rt?
Thanks for the comment. I wish I knew where you could get panniers for your 09 RT - but I don’t. Good luck!
Why did they do this
I prefer the approach on the GS.
Could you turn the BMW flag correctly please?
What do you mean by “correctly?”
@@PacMoto Look at the letters...they are sideways. Rotate ccw 90°.

You don't need to remove the speaker.
Just pop the Nav out and stick your fob halfway into the bottom hole and it'll work.
No tools required
I’ll try that. Thanks for the comment.
@@PacMoto So what was the result?
