Bluetooth Receiver for My BMW R1250RT

[@Azati404]

Sweet, that's one of the next things I plan on doing on the bike. Just installed the cyclops LEDs

[@motor8654]

It works great, I miss this bike over my '23 RT.

[@danielalvarez9508]

Great man! Thank very much!

[@motor8654]

You're welcome!

I’m not a fan of playing loud music through my bike’s speakers but that’s a nice add on for those who dig it. I was under the impression that the “iPod” source on the bike’s system would play an iPhone through the USB port but that’s not the case, as far as I could find. (I prefer to stream it to my helmet’s comm device but I guess it’s good to have different options).

[@motor8654]

I listen to the iPod or XM stereo through the speakers and my phone through my helmet speakers. I can find something good all the time. I also use a different windscreen, which makes for a quiet cockpit, see link. werksparts.com/products-1

Just purchased a New Schubert Helmet with in-built Bluetooth Communication System. Been looking for a Bluetooth Transmitter to hook up to my R1150RT Stereo system so I can continue to listen to the Bike's FM Radio. This might do the trick

[@motor8654]

It works great, and gives you more options for listening while you ride.

thanks for this suggestion. I didn't even think of using a BT receiver, which I have a couple just sitting around the house. BTW, that's an interesting hood for the GPS. Did you make that? Also, do u ever try to use this setup on long trips? My phone always overheads when it's on a mount, exposed to the sun.

[@motor8654]

Yes, I made the sun shade. Here's the video link below about it. I use the same sun shield (but a different size) for my phone and now it never shuts off because of the heat/sun The BT receiver works great too, and I've used it on all of my trips. kzbin.info/www/bejne/npjTea2mZ7WseJo

Hi Lionel, does this work with an R1200RT 2008 model? I don’t see the cable you mentioned at the beginning of the video that comes with motorbike where you connect the Bluetooth device in my glove box. I have been looking for a solution like this for a long time but I just don’t know how to do it. My bike is a bit old (it can play CD and radio) but even the radio signal is not great so I have been thinking about how to make the speakers Bluetoothable but I don’t know if that’s possible with all models or only after a certain year? Any idea? Many thanks

[@motor8654]

Maybe try it and return it if it doesn't work for your bike. Good luck. Steve

[@wjbasten]

Looks good but does it work ok with the box closed?

[@motor8654]

I think it does close, but I didn't close it all the way by using some Velcro.

[@D6EH]

I thought the RT had bluetooth built in?

[@motor8654]

This bike (2020) is the previous generation. The current ones have Bluetooth.

Can you switch tracks with MagicWheel?

[@motor8654]

No, only the volume up and down.
