Off Topic » 2019 r1250rt question

Looking at the above with 31K on it. When the dealer started the bike, the windshield [ the upper 1/3 anyway ] was vibrating like all get out. Asked him about it, he said they all do that.

Nah, that can't be, I've read too many RT owners impressions on that model and haven't seen any mention of that malady.

What say the members who own one, or could it be just that year for some reason?

Thanks in advance

I've had 9 RTs. Yep, they all do that at idle. It smooths out with more revs and is undetectable when on the move. Don't worry about it!

I've only owned one RT, a 1200, and that wasn't my experience.

Do you hear a rattle or see a movement? Does it change if you increase throttle at zero speed (standing still)?

It seems to be worse if the throttle balance is a bit off. .

There's no throttle sync on the liquid cooled boxers.

IMHO, that's simply wonderful!

RT or RS? They have different windscreens mounts.

Me too.
Had a 1984 R100RT from 1984 to 1988 and 65,000 miles.
You could set the carbs and they would be out of sync by the end of the driveway.
