i have this exact problem, car is stuck on p, brake light flashes, system fault service now, oil sensor and tcm no comm. Will definitely give your trick a try and check there

Good job. I bought my K1200RS 2000 new and it has been sitting for about five years. I had done fluid and brakes but not clutch. Fuel hoses and quick disconnects I'm changing. Had solid connectors hell to get loose. Good tip on radiator fluid. Thanks for making vid. Man that gearbox drain was something. Walmart may have put it on. All good

Are you really using wire nuts to make this repair?🤦‍♂️

Great video, thx! It's working again

Best service video I’ve seen for these

When you're at that point you should also do the crank case vent tube. Big job to get to for a little rubber hose.

They tend to leak with full synthetic oil. Better to go at least semi synth on the engine.

YOU are THE MAN!!🎉🤠

I seemingly have the same issue. It happened right after the heavy rainfall we received in the north east of the US. Love it! Thanks for the video!

Anyone know how many connections are standard on the battery terminal? I have a k1200 RS 2003...seems like 3/4 extra wires are connected to the battery....flashing rear light is one of them that I want to get rid of and I rather not do trial and error to figure out what's stock.

Tks a lot

Ive got one and this is a great vid.Thank you

Thanks a lot you saved me a lot of time and money, God bless you

Perfect video. Thanks for the close ups and clear narration. Do these need to have the rear main seal done?

How go about am

Just picked up a 2003 K1200RS. This is a great video on all the stuff I need to do to it. Thank you.

Should I have a signal on all wires one does nothing at all when touched with meter

Well now I know what's coming up. I just picked up a 2003 and 28000 mi. I'm going to go ahead and do it all. Mine has a little bit of clutch basket clatter but I'm getting good at earplugs for that

Very well xplain it! Congrats.

🤲🏻🤲🏻👌👌👌👌👌

Only $3000? I'm just looking at a 2002 k1200rs with 9000 miles, in Longmont, asking price $5,999!

@colinharris-cross9712 8 minutes ago I have a problem with my 199 K1200RS that I purchased during Covid in 2020. The previous owner (only owner prior to me) had a work accident in the year 2000 & only clocked up 12.5K on the bike & has been unable to ride it since the accident! I purchased it & had it freighted to me & it was a great bike to ride. Unfortunately, I now live on a farm in NSW (OZ) & due to the huge amount of rain & the 8 klm's of dirt road, I have only put a thousand klm's on it. the weather has changed & we have had the road repaired, so I stripped the fuel tank & all associated parts down, replaced those parts needing it & after putting it back together, I have 1 electrical connection that doesn't seem to go anywhere! I didn't take photos because I thought I was so smart & now I don't know where it should go!!!! I have the manual, but its photos are pretty basic & are no help! Can you help out with any info on the electrical connections surrounding the throttle body, Injectors etc.? Reply

Nice I have same error on a vw dsg 7 You have found some fix for this code of error? Thank you

Perfect example of how a service video should be. Descriptive on where everything is. Straight to the point without getting all Nancy about your feelings about what color the top screws are. Great video man. I myself have a 2003 K1200RS and this video was helpful. Im due for a cam chain tensioner fix.

Review of the shocks now that you've had them installed for a while?

Like Andre Strydom said, you have one of the best BMW's ever made. Mine (my 2nd) is from August 1999 with +120.000K on it and it still runs perfectly and still is beautifull. (Always parked in my garage does help) The only real issue was my clutch that slipped caused by an o-ring wich was hardened out so the oil came in the clutch area. My speedometer is fixed twice and that's all. Still rides like a beauty. (My first 1200K had a crank bearing issue after 12.000K. BMW fixed this under warranty.) Yours looks stunning new btw.

Can you please tell me what to do golf Mark6 Dsg automatic Please

Hi there, I have a same problem

2:36 great video gives a good onceover of the things to look for and the layout. I have a 1985 K100 & 1993 K1100. I suggest checking and lubing the splines as well.

I just got a 1200rs and it’s been stripped for the track. No lights, all the wires have been cut. I have no idea how to splice wires nor do I know which one goes where! But I got the bike for free. Maybe you can do a video on all the brake light cables and headlight cables?? Anyways, thanks for the vid!

Hi, please, I've bought a BMW K 1200 RS 2005 96kw machine and I'm having a bit of trouble finding the service manual and I need to know what oils I need to replace. Could you advise me and specify and possibly supplement with a specific product? Some sources say that the same oil can be used for both the drive shaft and the gearbox, while others say otherwise. I'm confused about that. 1. Engine oil 2. Oil for the drive shaft 3. Oil for the gearbox Also, I have a few additional questions: 4. What coolant do you use? 5. Air filter 6. Brake fluid 7. Spark plugs Thanks a lot. BTW. thanks for the video!!!

merci de mettre les video en francais

Replace your lamps? Are LED’s available?

Please. For your own sake, what a nice man! Nice video thanks

Thanks for the information sir

How many quarts of oil does it take in the crankcase?

Tks for the info Danny drive safe 👍😎

Happens on alot of modern cars now … splices in loom arent waterproof. All it takes is glue lined heatshrink - but thats too expensive

Thanks Excellent Explanation very helpful nice job last month I bought k1200 LT and last year I bought R1100RT that I have to Bleed the brakes

You doing good 👍 Please can I get your number

Hope you enjoy your Black MAX shocks!!

Can you recommend a resource on how to properly bleed the brake system on your bike. I just purchased your exact same bike with the brembo brake system and I read that it's a little bit easier to bleed than the servo assisted ones. Thank you for posting such a great video. I would be interested to see how you install that gas line quick disconnect system.

Nice shout out to Kirk..

Buenas noche alguien me puede desir por k mi moto se apaga cuando enpiesas a trabajar sus bentiladoder ayuda por favor

Hey Danny, I think this may be happening to my 2008 toureg v10 that I recently purchased, one question I see that you were able to pull the carpet without moving the pillars or the footwell sills. Were you able to pull the carpet fairly easily?

Bought a 1999 BMW K1200RS 3/2021 and after riding all last summer and the start of this... I'm thinking WTF was I thinking :(! I don't have a garage, the smarts and or the tools to even do a freaking oil change. Gotta take hours just to pull the gosh-forsaken fairings :(. Anyone with the skills, brains or money to pay others for service... I'd like to get rid of this bike and buy a scooter w/ no fairings :) Bikes in Lake Geneva, WI

Nicelly done Sir 😀

Didn’t see your gear selector display on your dashboard PRNDS

This video is super helpful. My car has very similar errors showing up. I found water accumulates underneath the driver seat and corroded wire connections. I am trying to reconnect them and I want to ask if I need to DISCONNECT the battery? I’d so, what would be the best way you suggest. Thank you all very much again.

Muito bom o vídeo obrigado
