Best Answer

Turn the ignition switch on, set the kill switch to run. Confirm the transmission is in neutral, pull in clutch and hold brake while depressing start button on top of kill switch. Engine should start within 5 seconds or so. If it does not, release start button and then re-depress for another 5 seconds. Repeat process one more time if it still does not start, then commence troubleshooting.

There is also a side stand safety switch. The stand must be folded up.

there are no factory seat heaters on the R1200C. On the dresser R1200CL and CLC, there is, and that is controlled by a rocker switch on the handlebar. The passenger seat heater should have a rocker either on the side of the seat or under the right edge of the seat. off, low, and high. If it is a R1200C, Corbin made a heated seat for this and there is a simple on off switch.

How do you check the fuel filter on a BMW R1200C motorcycle?

BMW R1200C fuel filters are located inside the fuel tank mounted with the fuel pump assembly. The fuel must be completely drained out the tank and the entire tank must be removed off the bike to access the bolts under the fuel tank. It's made of metal and looks like a typical fuel filter. For such a job it's best to just replace the fuel filter while it's disassembled.
