Success! Lock came out and now I have top case on my new RT!

That screwdriver tool worked great - took me 10 minutes and I was done!

Thank you all again.

Thank you all for advise - I will make this stiffer tool and see if it works this weekend.

Peter

Thank you.
I saw this post already. Did you use these on 28L top case?
When I looked through the opening, I did not see same features - just a simple slot and it looked far from the lock.

Hey guys!
I just got 2013 RT today and want to move my 28L Top Box from my R to the new bike. I was wondering if any of you know how to remove the lock, so I can re-key it.

I know I can take it to the dealer but besides this advice - any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Peter

Waiting for 328d to come to states - should be fun!

I recently replaced battery on 2009 R1200R with Shorai.
Awesome battery! Not to mention saved 8 pounds of weight.
Recommend it.

I just sent you PM.

Are you looking for OEM tank bag or some other brand?

It was on October 20th.

Good luck, Ron! Keep us posted. You may miss some things about roadster, right?

As much as I know, replacing brake caliper is not hard but you will have to bleed your system after.
What car is it anyways?
BTW - brakes are important - don't ignore your problem!

You can have mine stock seat. PM me.

I got the latest issue of BMW Motorcycle magazine and there is an extensive article about new water cooled GS. So I started to think what this engine would look like on R12R... water hoses, fans, radiators... GS has some covers for all this. Roadster may need to be redesigned extensively in order to...

To me a smart phone is not only a phone itself but: 1. network 2. app store 3. security 4. user friendliness We use Apple product a lot at my business and home. iPhones are great but I know from few of my friends, Android phones (Samsung S3 included) are really good as well. As far direct comparison...

I assume you are using Safari to browse, right?

I upgraded all our Macs (4 of them) right after ML was released and ALL "forgot" ALL login info for ALL sites we used.
I believe it's just a nature of Safari when you upgrade to ML, as it is new with this OS X release. That's what I think.

From what I know (and I'm fairly new to BMW motorcycles) at 12k dealer suppose to adjust valves and do other minor things. This forum is great (I love it) but since your bike is still on warranty and service was performed by the dealer, I would at least call them and let them know what you are seein...

Did you change oil at 12k? Was any service preformed at 12k? If YES - did you use the same oil or used something else? Synth perhaps?

Rode for over 200 miles in Wisconsin with two other riders (Valkyrie and BlackBird) - awesome weather (82deg) and not a lot of traffic.
Need more time like this to ride...

I purchased and installed Pedco UltrClamp camera mount on my R today and took it for a spin around our neighborhood. In my opinion works great. I was able to install our little camera (Olympus XZ-1) and shoot quick movie. I like it so far. Here is a link to the mount on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com...
