Just ordered the the Repair Manual.

Is it like a regular shop manual where you can “turn pages” and has an index or is it like BMW’s shop software that’s anything but intuitive?

Looking forward to it. I tried the link, but there was very little illustration on what the disc contained.

Did your repair manual arrive Stefan?

Is it a worthwhile investment?

So ..., everything installed.

I do not know the old version of the R1200RS CD, but I get along well with the one from the R1250RS.
The instructions can be updated and used on 3 computers, but must be registered online.
It's like a VW repair manual. Every necessary step is listed.
Which special tools you need, filling quantities, etc., etc.
The CD is only for the R1250 R + RS models, incl. the US Models.
In the Settings you can choose your Language.

You select the repair Group in a small window and then double-click to open the large View.

Here are a few photos, which hopefully do not violate the Copyright

Would post more Pictures, but I'm not sure about the Copyright

For this, I also advertise the CD.
This is a original BMW CD and not an illegal Copy.

I paid 69 €, appr. 75 USD, incl.shipping.

I can recommend the CD from my side

What is it like to use? Can you peruse it like a paper one (PDF) viewing page after page or it is like the ISO one you can download where you pick bike model and have to navigate to the subsystem you want to work on to see anything? E-manuals are nice when on the road, but I really miss quality paper ones.

It is structured like a book.
You look for the appropriate repair Group and then go to this Group.
The Instructions are saved in PDF, which do not have to be opened page by page, if the Group is open, you can scroll down without Interruption.
I have no Problems with this Manual, precisely because I am used to it from Work.
Hope I could explain that ...

I have the Haynes for the R1200RS, but I wasn't really happy with it.
I was missing too much Information.
The book is simply too small for all water boxers (R1200).
The Haynes Instruction for my MINI (2001-2008) is perfect, but it"s almost 1000 pages thick !!

Might be just like the DVD I already have (it’s from BMW). Some service manuals are better than others. I particularly miss exploded views of parts so that you can see how something goes together.

On the 1200R forum, a guy has a jammed oil filter, and he was wondering IF the bolt was damaged (I suspect not). I tried looking for anything about the engine case on the oil filter side, and there is NOTHING in the Haynes manual or the DVD from BMW short of an image showing the mating surface. Can’t tell if the bolt is removable or cast into the casing itself, nor are there instructions regarding a jammed oil filter. From this I must presume the mount bolt is not a separate component. You only seem to get images of the relevant repair step. How often I’ve used overall exploded views to get a sense of how things go together across systems, but alas no more.

The oil Filter bolt can be recognized in the R1250RS instructions and is described as an oil filter Socket under tightening Torques.
It is an M20x1.5., Tightening torque is 35Nm.
Should be the same with the R1200

But can not be found as a spare Part

Which indicates to me it’s integral to the motor casing. Fortunately, as I advised him, I believe the filter side is made from cheap metal, and if anything will strip, it’s the threads on the filter side. So, once he gets the jammed filter off, he should be good.
