Hi Dave Dragon, on the brake light module, did you use the one for the R80GS and R100GS as shown on the link, or did you use the one for the R1200GSA, I have the one for the R1200GSA and it works, but then I did not let BMW dealer upgrade my firmware. I am however having LEDs that are failing, and no replacement from GIZMO Mill, they won't return phone calls or e-mails.

Just curious

Just Bob.

I have the R1200GS version from Gizmo-mill.
No problems so far, an I have not had the can-bus software upgraded since I purchased the bike.

I have not been able to find anyone with one to sell to replace the one I have with the burned out LED's. Any luck in your area. I should be down in your area for bike week. Will look you up.

I bought the LED tail light from Tourtech, and when I installed it, it wouldn't work. I tried and tried to call the mfg, but the phone number listed on the box is not in service, and no one ever answered the email. In the end, I had to return it to Tourtech. I have a 2005 GS. Never did find out why it wouldn't work.
