Take me home, El Capitan!


You've heard about it... you've wanted one.. and yet again..Pirates' Lair delivers with the K1200LT Performance Chip from RhineWest Performance, Inc. With a tested horsepower improvement of 7hp at 6000 RPM and a torque improvement of 10 Ft/Lbs at 4800 RPM, the performance software improves the drivability and overall performance of the K1200LT by manipulating the core of the engine management system, the BMW motronic unit. Software & decryption board included. Just pull the factory chip and plug this kit in. No other mods necessary.

RhineWest Performance offers 2 chips for your K1200LT. One for 1997-8/99 production dates and one for 8/99-2004. Note: Rhine West has also determined that there is a "gray" area where removing your tank and checking the computer box #'s might be necessary for proper Chip selection. If in doubt... call us at 828.628.7093 EST and we'll figure it out.

As for the install, you will need a T30 Torx™ , tamper-proof wrench to get your motronic box apart. A standard Torx wrench will NOT work. We've seen these on Ebay and cheap. You can buy a complete Kobalt brand Torx kit at Lowes for $20. NAPA also sells them as part # 775-5938 or Sears.

Note: Unlike the K12RS/GT Chip, the K1200LT software is exhaust specific. Please state when ordering which exhaust you have on your bike.. stock, Remus, Staintune, etc...
