How to Reset Trip Odometer (TFT Screen)

[88bmwjeff]

The bike: 2018 R1200 GS with TFT screen

I read the manual and followed the instructions to reset the trip computer screen on the TFT; however, everything reset except the trip meter. Is there a trick to getting that to reset?

We may have a terminology issue but the "odometer" is the record of all the miles on the bike and can not be changed at the user level. The trip meter A and B can be reset as you see fit. Let us know

Yes, I meant the trip meter, but I'd still like to figure out how to.

It's confusing because Trip One is Onboard Computer.

Start video at 1:20

I saved the video because I know I'll forget how to do it by spring

Thanks Lee. That was helpful. I learned a few things watching that video.

Not noted in Lee's linked video is the ability to set Trip #2 to automatically reset whenever the fuel tank is filled. Just check the "Automatic Reset" box and push the wonder wheel left.

That's cool. Thanks

I have not filled the bike enough times to know what method I'll use on a trip.

I liked the R1200 setup on trips.
Trip one was reset at gas stops.
Auto reset itself each night so I could see how far we went in a day.
Trip 2 I let go for the trip so I could see my trip mileage and gas mileage for the trip.
With one bump of the wonder wheel I could see all those values on one screen of the Nav V.

So who gets the best fuel mileage? You? Or Debbie?

I usually get 1 or 2 mpg better than Debbie. She also wears her back tire a little faster.
She has a self control problem with her right wrist
I check the gas mileage as a early warning to any engine tune problems.

I was going to reply to the Toll Road thread.
Debbie likes leaving a toll both because she considers it legal drag racing

Why am I not a bit surprised.
