Not a big surprise, 9.5 years ago my K1200RS sticker cost $51.

Where will you put it?

I see it came from Max. Did you local dealer not want to order it for you?

I had a small scrape on one of the small fairings on the RH side and had it repainted at a body shop, which could not do a proper job without removing the sticker. All sorted now though and the sticker is back on. Was a bit nervous handling this little bit of vinyl "gold". Bike has to be faster now ... Big Grin

Local dealer is typically more expensive than Max, and Max and their online fiche are more convenient. I also buy from ASCycles, another BMW dealer with an online fiche.

Did give the local dealer some business ... ordered 3 x M6 x 25 Torx screws (torque to yield) for the right side engine cover. Had to come all the way from Germany so it took almost 2 weeks.

Wow, your dealer must be charging more than list. The prices on parts fiches are normally list price.
