BMW Roundel Emblem

[ralwhite]

I went for a nice ride last week on my 2012 R1200RT (silver tri-color) and when I returned home I noticed that the Roundel emblem on the right side fairing was missing. This was the result of the glue giving out. After some research I found that the fairing BMW emblem is 70mm. I ordered a replacement and when it arrived I found that it was flat. The original emblem is slightly domed and is (was) glued to a metal disc that is attached to the fairing. The metal disc has a small polished lip around the outer edge and the emblem fits inside it. The problem is that the outside diameter of the metal disc is 70mm so the emblem has to be slightly smaller in order to fit within the lip of the metal disc. If anyone can steer me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it.

Kind of depends on which emblem you ordered.

51 14 7 721 222. Is the emblem in the parts fiche for your bike. I’m pretty sure that this is the rounded 3D style badge that you are referring to. The sell price is nearly $73 US.

$73!!! That has got to take the prize as one of the biggest rip offs of the ages. Hey, maybe pop the other roundel off and buy a couple of Yamaha tuning fork roundels. Bet that would get some attention at your local Beemer dealer. I would do it just because. I mean $73 to advertise just for BMW?? Hey, I've had more than a few people look at my '10 FJR and say, "Nice BMW". No kidding.

For years I have replaced failed roundels on various BMW bikes with the much nicer ones sold by Bob's BMW. These are 70 mm, less expensive, and are Cloisonne (a sort of enamel that is more durable than the roundel used as OEM).

I ordered a 70mm rounded on ebay yesterday to replace one I lost during the rally. If it doesn't fit, I've got a deadhead sticker for that spot.

ToasterTan has some exceptionally nice badges for a very good price. Even a sweet Motosports option...

... rallies. 1989 FJ1200, R80 racks (metal) modified to fit. K1100RS bags. Another bike I should have kept!

Just ordered a replacement emblem from Max with parts number you provided. They confirmed that it is indeed the correct part. Thanks again.
