As I get closer to making the trade, I am wondering if any of my farkles will be transferrable from my 1150R to the 1200R.
The only thing I'm confident about is the bar risers.
I don't think that the SignalMinder will work, considering I can't even find one for the R1200R online anywhere. I'm so used to having it, I need one of these, or I'll be that guy always riding around with a signal on... :shock:
Throttlemiester? Has anyone tried it?
LED tail light? nope I doubt it.

Has anyone else successfully transfered any "accessories" from a 1150 to a 1200?

Don't know about the other stuff but the R12R signals will turn themselves off. Its some combination of distance travelled and time I think - not sure exactly how long though, but you won't be travelling far with the signal flashing.
Throttlemeister lists a different part number for the 1150 than the 1200.

I'm using a Kaoko throttle locker. The one for the K1200S or R fits our bike. I find that the little ridges on the outer edge help to set and release it. A well made product.
Like Mark said the signals turn themselves off.

Thanks for the info.
Has anyone installed k-bike mirrors on the 1200?
I have them on my 1150, and hope to move them over.

They should be an improvment.
