Started another tune up and found these.
I guess it is time for replacement?
also yup I have and use the BMW plastic OEM tool
No stick coils on an 1100RT. Just plug wires. Wait till you see what the dealer wants for them!
You can get new ones identical to OEM here ($75): http://www.motoelekt.com/
Or here for almost identical but very high quality ($49). Only difference is with these is the tool does not quite fit over the ends. Other than that they are excellent wires: http://www.euromotoelectrics.com/product_p/bmw-ws-fslash-r641.htm

Repair?
Patch with clear RTP, wind-on some self-vulcanizing tape, and call it good! Horrifying thought, I know.
The above will at least work until you get replacements, or about 30 years, whichever comes first. And, you can still use the plug-puller!

Another source to consider: Beemerboneyard has them for $60.

They don't say who actually makes then but judging from the packaging and the little packet of dielectric grease these look identical to the ones from EuroMotoElectric which are $49.

Good to know. I wasn't familiar with EuroMotoElectric. Thanks for the tip.
