..so I rewired the bike for 'always-on' headlight. All the wires I needed were already there in the harness. I reasonably expect this was still the case on your RT, as this would keep BMW from having to make different main harnesses for different markets. So if you were to get a Euro switch, it's p...

But where is the light-dimmer switch here? The one that shows in the diagram? I don’t have it, I just turn the key.. With your type of switch, turning the key to position 1 should activate only the parking lights; 3w bulb in (or on top of) headlight + the tail light bulb. Key can be removed. This i...

On my handlebar I only have high-beams (on/off, not even flashing) 'Flash-to-pass' function. When you push down the high beam should go on, when you release it the switch should spring back to the center position. Maybe yours needs a bit of lubrication. FYI- The 'non-euro' swtch has plastic detent ...

This is the 'EURO' switch with the headlight function. Available from BMW. NOT 'plug'n'play. You have to switch a few wires around. Note to Mel: EJECT function keeps passengers 'quiet' and on their best behaviour. :lol: I like the EJECT function! Lol It’s an aftermarket switch.. which probably matc...

This might help, it's for a 88-'90 r100gs. Should be close enough (maybe identical?) to a RT to resolve most issues. It's a jpeg, so it gets blurry when you zoom in. I can email you a PDF format so you can zoom in all you want and it stays clear if you send me your email address. Not sure how to po...

Thank you guys. I’m tempted to buy those EME diagrams..
Ii just do not want to spend $30 on a useless piece of paper..

Hello everyone, I’m rebuilding my BMW R100RT and I’m having hard time finding a colored wiring diagram. The bike is a monolever, year 1989. The diagram I have on the Haynes (not colored, but I can live with that) doesn’t seem accurate to me. For example it shows a light-dimmer switch/control that th...

Hello everyone, I’m new to this forum, so I introduce myself first: my name is Marco, I’m from Italy, I recently bought a 1989 R100RT monolever that I’m restoring and transforming in a Cafe Racer. One of the things I want to do is to delete the airbox and replace it with filter pods/conic airfilters...
