My previous oil leak was gear oil from the transmission breather, which the dealer repaired under warranty. This is an engine oil leak that looks to be from the oil pan just below the breast plate. :-| 11.7K miles on the bike.

Happy Travels.

Lots of work done. Head light recall, I put on the Helibars, aux lights. I did look for loose screws and everything was tight and nothing was missing that I could see.

Qty 1 - Bushing. 35 21 7 721 100… (#9)
QTY 2 - Bushing. 23 41 7 674 079… (#8). <<<<<<Edit - Didn’t need these on my R18B, only the...
BMW discounted parts, not the dealers. Here in the US, you can go to https://www.shopbmwmotorcycles.com/. I’m not sure if that’s global, but maybe there is something like that where you live.
Ok, not really a warning but an FYI. (Edit, wrong part number in bold)
I installed the RSD Gear Shifters and floor boards. The floorboards are ok; they are a little smaller, which I hope won't be an issue. Here’s the warning. The RSD rear brake pedal does not include #9 in the diagram, part#...
