bmw gs 1200 tft display made in china

I have got my USED TFT KOMBI in my hands last Saturday and my first goal was to check if really used TFT cannot be properly coded. Definitely this is NOT a problem: for my test I used an F850GS factory equipped with 6AB connectivity.

I swapped the original TFT on F850 with the used part (it was from a crashed 2018 R1200GS Rallye), and it showed the data of the donor motorcycle (mileage, settings, vehicle image and next service date), the kilometers are less than the GS850 and displayed in red due to anti tamper settings.

At this point I tried doing KOMBI mileage alignment, but ISTA+ refused the service plan because the TFT was exchanged without following the ISTA procedure.

So I choose Vehicle Management - Control Unit Replacement - After Replacement procedure for KOMBI3 and followed all the steps, finally the new VIN and data of F850GS were perfectly stored into the used TFT, and it has become an exact clone of the original one (I was able to exchange the two TFT without any errors in ISTA). Also the ABS error was solved after the procedure.

This was only an experiment, my goal will be to install TFT in 2017 R1200GS following the same procedure used above, but first need the connector to do the cable conversion as wrote before, the part is not more available from BMW and the China one from the above link has not the correct shape.

Benelli has been rolling out new models in its home country of China left and right. After recently unveiling an impressive roster of new and updated small to mid-capacity machines, the Chinese-owned Italian company has brought out the big guns with the 1200GT. Finally unveiled in the Chinese market, the Benelli 1200GT is the biggest, most tech-packed motorcycle to roll out of Benelli"s assembly line. Let"s take a closer look.

The Benelli 1200GT holds the title as the largest Chinese-made motorcycle currently in production. That being said, Benelli has decided to go big on the feature front, too. The 1200GT gets a whole host of features such as an electronically adjustable windscreen, folding side mirrors, and an in-built tire pressure monitoring system. It comes outfitted with a massive 15-inch, full-color, GPS-equipped TFT display. For reference, that"s bigger than an iPad. As expected, you can do a whole lot with this bike"s built-in tablet of an instrument cluster. For starters, you can view live feeds from the bike"s front and rear-mounted cameras.

To keep this behemoth of a machine composed at speed and in corners, the bike gets a set of radially mounted ABS-equipped Brembo brakes, an inverted front fork, and an adjustable rear mono-shock. The Benelli 1200GT has been priced at CNY 99,800, or roughly $15,426 USD. Not bad, considering the amount of tech and comfort features you get from this machine. If and when Benelli decides to introduce the 1200GT to the global market, it"ll lock horns with the likes of the BMW R 1250 RT and the Kawasaki Concours 14.

BMW R1250GS and R1250GSA, including Rallye, TFT Display anti theft brace, TFT screen anti theft brace, TFT display screen protection, TFT display screen locking frame, fits all BMW R1250 GS LC and Adventure LC models. High grade 304 stainless steel construction. Designed and produced in the UK by craftsmen. Very robust, durable extremely high quality engineered product.

Regretfully the TFT display, which is standard equipment on all models of the BMW R1250GS and Adventure range, is only held in place by three circlips and a wiring plug, believe it or not! These units can be so easily removed by hand with minimal force and stolen in mere seconds, with a per unit replacement cost of around £1,200, often plus the additional cost of up to around £3000 to have the wiring loom replaced if this is also damaged beyond further use during the theft of the unit!

The idea of this product is to simply deter opportunist thieves from snatching your TFT display, and it works by physically preventing the display from being removed outwards from the dash. Even if the three circlips are removed the screen cannot physically be removed. The brace utilizes four strong mounting points and can be used in conjunction with the `preparation for satnav` bracket, and is also designed to be used in conjunction with the Cymarc adjustable screen strengthening brackets kit. The brace is easy to fit and is near impossible to remove without tools - which is the whole idea! It comes with a comprehensive installation leaflet and full fitting kit, and there is also now various installation videos on YouTube.

This is an extremely good value for money, and equally high quality product, powder coated satin black as standard so it looks very much at home on the bike and blends in like it is original equipment, and it could save you thousands of pounds in repairs and replacement display! There is a choice between the standard brace, or the brace with the optional built-in sun visor.

Motorcycle.com had a chance to ride the new 800 Adventura Terrain on a closed, paved course ahead of its official launch in the U.S. and came away with good feelings. There’s loads of sophisticated technology, including standard ABS and Bosch cornering ABS to regulate the J.Juan dual front 320mm discs w/ opposed 4-piston radial calipers and single 260mm disc w/floating 2-piston caliper out back.

Cruise control is also standard, as well as traction control and two electronic ride modes (Rain and Sport), which are switched via a 7-inch color TFT display. Both models also provide USB and 12V DC outlets and feature LED lighting and fog lights. The medium-height windscreens above the pinched beaks look to be the same size on both machines and a gnarled plastic hand knob suggests adjustability.
