I don't know how to post pics off of my computer, don't have any on the web.

Its just a piece of aluminum tube flattened on each end and holes drilled for the bolt.

I actually fabricated a one piece aluminum bar for the upper bracket much easier and stronger.

Info sent.
Hope it helps. Haven't mounted mine yet

Thanks guys. I emailed the mfg and they actually replied with a sketch and some pics.
Nice to know the orientation of everything.
Now I know I'm short a couple of fasteners too . . .

Let me know if anyone wants the info.

Just bought a used Parabellum Scout for my 2008 R1200R sans mounting instructions.

Any one have the drawing/instructions?

Thanks.

ABS light on my 2008 R1200R stays on. :( Haven't had any problems before. Today was first time to ride after about four months. Searched the board and found out about the ABS issues with the motor and probably a rebuild by Module Masters. I plan to take it to a dealer (there is not one currently in ...

Thinking of buying a Parabellum fairing, maybe 20 or 22 inch windscreen for touring use.

Any opinions out there?

Thanks in advance,
Bruce.

Look thru your owners manual under starting the bike, page 67 in my manual for the 2008. The part about the "service" and yellow warning is on page 22. I am very happy and happy with the bike - I just don't have a dealership to take it to and don't want to get stranded in the middle of no...

Pretty sure the yellow light is because of the "service" by the odometer. It does go off, but is not part of the normal start up diagnosis. There is no fault code or description in the display. (Other than "service") It only has 5000 mi and I plan to change the oil every 1000 mi ...

I think the yellow warning triangle is for a service interval, as the "service" letters beside the mileage is constant on. found this on pg 22 owners manual - not in the start up dummy light section . . . the next service date shows Feb 2015. Maybe the date in the computer is off. I think ...

Red battery light and yellow warning triangle stays on before start then both go out once started. No warning lights on after start. Battery measures 13.3V Just put a new battery in about a month ago. The previous battery seemed to go bad a little early than I expected. My closest BMW dealership is ...

New battery - started right up.

Thanks again for the help.

Thanks for the reassurance about the roll start. Never had a bike that hard to roll.

Charged the battery overnight 13 volts - drops down to 11.5 when attempting start - no turnover.

Stays at about 11.8 to 12 after with ignition on.

Going to try a new battery.

Try to start my '08 R1200R 4500 miles bike this afternoon and . . . . . click . . . .click . . .wont turn over - at all. Think my trusty $150 BMW trickle charger is on the fritz because of erroneous light signals in the past, so I pull out my multimeter and strong 13+ volts - hmmmm. Try roll startin...

very nice info - thank you !

My local BMW dealership just closed and the closest one is about three hours away.

Anybody have the procedure for the fuel pump & flange inspection? Pics?

Probably cost less to do it myself than ride six hours and possibly have to wait for the parts.

Arghhhhhh!!!!


2008 R1200R btw

Replace it now, before you get stranded (like me). They tend to fail totally and abrubtly - battery tender or not. . I stopped for fuel, tried to restart [-o< , tried to hit - then died - no lights - nothing :( . Luckily i called the local shop and they brought me a battery, installed it roadside. S...

Did you know that when you kill the engine with the key still on, the headlight goes off when you pull the bike in revearse and then comes back on when you push it forward . . .?
