• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Inaccurate speedometer / thermometer / clock

    The BMW K1200 is 10% off as well, except for the Police versions...go figure. I'm not sure that 3 mph variation is going to significantly change any value of the bike. Isn't that only about 1500 miles every 50,000 miles? If your dealer that you trade in to says it does, trade her in after...

    Inaccurate speedometer / thermometer / clock

    I do believe I answered his question regarding the temperature indication, since I used to have that problem as well, and fixed it- primarily because I cared there was inacurate data being sent to the ECM.

    Inaccurate speedometer / thermometer / clock

    2010 RTS-SM5 I moved my temp/pressure sensor to the protected area of the right wheel well, just inboard of the coolant reservoir. Now, ample fresh air reaches the sensor, and the readings are dead on (as far as I can tell). It even changes with hitting those "cold spots" in low lying areas. Im...

    Ambient Air Temp Sensor Relocation

    Albeit a small duty cycle variation at 5F, the radiant heat in Texas summer, has shown a greater than 20F difference between actual and ambient (parked in the sun). It takes 15-20 minutes of riding to get even close to actual temp. My goal here was not to make a massive difference in...

    Ambient Air Temp Sensor Relocation

    Update! I certainly appreciate all of the input! Blueknight911, you were correct about the location directly above the new JT Aircleaner. I decided to move it just inboard of the coolant reservoir, sensing air from the upper right duct/wheel well area. Outside of the engine compartment, in free...

    2011 RTS Question on Air Scoops

    Scoops were a relatively easy install. Best mod on my 2010! A must if you keep anything other than bacon in your glovebox in the summer. Yes, remove the underside plastic pans, also. Take your time on the installation of the scoops. Measure twice, cut once! You will wonder how you did without!

    Wiring Diagram Please

    Because it is a switch that is supposed to work, and it didn't. I could not open it electrically or mechanically once the bike was running.

    Wiring Diagram Please

    Thanks! I was looking for a way to open the FRUNK with just the key "on". I jumped the #8 & #5 wires on the plug for the Parking Brake/ Frunk switch, the cut the previous power supply for #5. Strictly a convenience issue, so I can now just turn the key, and open the frunk and load up while...

    Ambient Air Temp Sensor Relocation

    It's not a confined space. I would agree pressure readings would be affected if I were mechanically compressing the air, such as a turbo, or supercharger. There are multiple locations for airflow to enter and escape the engine compartment, therefore a differential pressure will be null. This...

    Ambient Air Temp Sensor Relocation

    Exactly my point. If the air above the motor is 185* then the air entering the throttle body with the new open air filter setup will be 185*. The sensor is now located where it can represent the temperature of the air entering the motor. When it was located by the frunk, Texas heat, at times...

    Ambient Air Temp Sensor Relocation

    My goal is to accurately represent the temperature of air actually entering the motor, not keep the sensor cooler. Since I installed the air ducts, I can no longer cook eggs in the console... The airflow is fantastic, even at 10 mph. The location change will now provide much better info to the ECM.

    Ambient Air Temp Sensor Relocation

    2010, RTS-SM5. The ambient temp sensor primarily supplies important variable information to the ECM for air/fuel ratio mixture, and shows the rider (roughly) the outside air temperature, I felt it has been poorly located from the factory. For those that don't know where it lives, it is located...
