Hi all,
Got to say the help and advice on here has been great so far so...
I have a halfords motorcycle trickle charger that I'd like to connect to my 2007 R1200S.
The manual advises only using a BMW one that connects via the accessories socket. Is this right, or unsubtle marketing?
Thanks
Mark

Just hook up a pig-tail direct to your battery - It's not caused any problems to any of the GS, R, ST, S 1200s - ever.

If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........
See if that works .....

It's because your post gets picked up quicker due to not having to cross the border.............

Does one exist between 2 scotymen.

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.
It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.
