The GS forums seem to suggest there is no way to bypass and carrying a spare is the fix.  I would think GS owners would have found a way by now (and maybe they did but I can't find it.)

That would be frustrating.  The part is just an antenna and shouldn't be that expensive - but they shouldn't need to resort to a carrying a spare.  BMW owners tend to be a clever bunch.  I bet you are right and that there is no reasonable bypass.

It's twenty year old technology.  BMW should have it down by now, and even Harley provides a bypass code. 

Interesting how every bike and manufacturer has their own quirks.

Both generations of the bike are available with Ohlin's - it is called the Boxer Cup, and at a major premium.

I would disagree with Ray on the best BMW sport tourer.  Having owned a R1100S (that is what you meant Ray?), and a K1200S, the K is a far superior tourer.  1200 miles in 22 hours on that bike.
Tim.,,,

Nope. Meant the R1200S. The updated model weighs about 40lbs less than the R1100S, has about 30 more HP, and is available with Ohlins suspension at both ends. Still nowhere near the HP of the K bike, but substantially less weight and purportedly superb suspension and handling.

Good morning all. I've found a bike I'd like to move on but I'd like to sell this first.
My final price is $3750 and that includes delivery to your home (metro area) on my trailer.


Thanks,
Greg

I'm curious, is this bike still for sale? I'm new to this forum and checked the thread but didn't see a SOLD post? If so i would be interested.

Thanks,

RG

These people have taught me more about riding than any day spent on a track: Larry B, Tony K, Vince J, Mr. Wonderful, V2Neal, Marty F, Kevin B, Devon W, Ehrich, Mike A, John L, Arnell, Kirk, Ray C

Track days are like climbing the rock wall at REI.
Perhaps I need to stop taking the high road.
