General topics » R1250RS fuel pump and Navigator 6 issues

I have a 2020 R1250RS, now with 10,000 miles on the odometer. The bike is fantastic and I love it, but I have had a couple issues and wonder if anyone else has experienced similar problems.

- Twice the fuel pump failed and the bike stuttered to a stop. Both times were in not particularly convenient circumstances. Each time I waited five minutes and the bike restarted and got me home. Dealer read fault codes and said there was voltage fluctuations to the pump. Fuel pump was replaced by dealer under warranty, no problems since.

- The Navigator 6 GPS unit has failed twice. Each time the touch screen acts wacky and becomes unresponsive so that data can't be entered. Each time Garmin has replaced the unit free of charge, and they claimed to "have the problem solved" on my third unit.

I have a 2020 R1250 RS and have not had any problems at all and have not heard of others having problems. 9,500 miles on mine.
I have a Nav VI on my RS and have not had any problems there either, however, many others have reported screen problems.

I've had the NavV1 problem you discribe, ie. Screen constantly changing, which I initially thought was a Thumbwheel issue, but I fixed the issue with a good clean of the touch screen.
No pump issues...... So far.

Can I get an update on you Nav 6 please. is it still working or has I failed again.

I have the nav 5 and no issues but my father has the nav 6 and it has now been replaced twice. the BMW dealer suggested he not unbox it and sell it. Poor customer service.

My retirement NAV 6 suffered badly from Ghosting so I contacted Garmin Support and they replaced it immediately. The replacement failed with the same issue after 2 or 3 uses. This was replaced. I haven't used the latest one much yet, but so far so good. 🤞🤞Rumour has it, a new model is close to being available. But..... Would you trust it?
I think Garmin service is not too bad as my Nav is well out of warranty,, but the product is not very poor for its price.
