MKL's 2009 BMW R1200RT Hexhead Maintenance Log

 

January 15, 2012 - 8,793 Miles: A slightly overdue annual oil change:

October 15, 2010 - 5,970 Miles: Cross-Country BMW in Metuchen performed the 6,000 mile service and replaced the faulty fuel level sensor under warranty. The front brake lines were also replaced under Safety Recall Campaign 10V-276.

March 26, 2010 - 810 Miles: The lighting was upgraded, and some other electrical farkles added, all neatly wired into a Centech AP-2 Panel using Eastern Beaver harnesses. The weatherproof switches for the lights were mounted on the blank radio control panel for easy access.

March 16, 2010 - 590 Miles: Cross-Country BMW performed a 600 mile service and checked for any open recalls, of which there were none. I added some farkles of my own as well.

January 21, 2010 - 32 Miles: The new Sapphire Black Metallic RT rolls home, replacing my beloved 2004 RT. The short trip was definitely enough to fall in love! And I was very happy to see that some of my old Oilhead RT's farkles fit the new RT, including the  Bob's BMW Brake Lever Extender, the large 3-D BMW logo beneath the license plate bracket, and my K1200GT "High" Mirrors. New accessories were added as well. We'll see what else needs to change as the miles start accumulating, but I see some auxiliary lighting in the near future.
