    2012 RT Intermittent Stuttering/surging Running Problems

    I have a 2012 R1200Rt with 48000 miles. A few times over the summer I notice the bike stumble or surge. After this happened, everything ran fine. Maybe about two months later it happened again. Then everything was running ok. I has new tires installed at the dealer about 4 weeks ago. The...

    O no not another thread about surging

    But yes. So I have had 5 different oil heads all have had some degree of surging from barely noticeable to are you kidding me. My current oil head is a 99R1100RT with staintune exhaust and no cat. which had a pronounced surge at about 1/4 throttle and light acceleration. So I added a O2 sensor...

    BMW - AF - XiED Anyone?

    Just wondering if anyone has any feedback on this Holy Grail plug & play device being marketed (and praised) on BeemerBoneyard? This is supposed to "cure" the fuel mixture problem with all 1100 & 1150 oil heads. The price is certainly fair for this item if it will actually do the trick, but...

    2011 R1200 GS - Engine surges after synchronization with GS-911

    Hi, My bike (with 74,000 km on it) was working fine prior to doing a synchronization with the GS-911 today. As part of routine maintenance, I thought I would check the synchronization, so I connected the GS-911 using my laptop and I believe I followed the directions as prompted by the GS-911...

    Fuel delivery system and surging/buckling

    Fuel delivery system and surging/bucking For months, I had been experiencing one of the most annoying surging conditions on my '04 R1150RT; with the help of some of our chartered club members, we did a conscious valve adjustment, changed the fuel filter and TBS with little to no improvement. A...

    07 GSA brake surging

    I recently bought an 07 GSA with 18K. Both front & rear brakes have a low speed surge/pulse. The rotors were replaced under warranty at 10k. I read a suggestion to sand the rotors for pad residue. This fixed about 50% of the surging. Any suggestions on aftermarket pads to deal with this or do I...

    How to test R1100RT O2 sensor !

    Rather than hijack WalkingEagle's valve lash thread which has swerved into other issues affecting surge on 1100 engines I thought I would ask this question here in another thread instead. It seems like all R259 engine performance threads lead into the dreaded surge one way or another. There is...

    Booster Plug - Early Impressions

    I received my Booster Plug over the weekend and installed it on Sat. The unit is dirt simple to install and I was able to run the temperature sensor lead along the right side of the battery and to the front of the cowling with a wire fish. No side panel or cowling removal needed. While the...

    Idle Regulating Valve (IRV) Question

    Sorry for double posting. I have asked this question in another very long and old thread (Surging = Needs Service) but thought maybe someone out there would recognize this particular issue. My '96 R1100RT has an IRV, no O2 sensor and no CCP from the factory. I read kenk's old post (A BMW Fix to...
