The service light is gone, no problem there. I think at this point we were talking about flashing the engine?

Thank you so much for clarifying that!! I was getting nervous the front wheel was going to fall off lol.

Sorry for the bad picture, but that is a gap where the forks attract to the steerer. It’s the same on both sides but why would there be a spare there??

I really don't know. I didn't do anything to it but the previous owner may have. I'll ask

Hey. Do you still have the seat??

Hey all, I have a wonderful problem! I have started seeing a backpack, but my gunfighter is a one-seater. Does anyone have a 2-up seat they'd like to swap for my one seater? Let me know!

That's your "stay humble ding". Leave it as it is...

Nice!! I’ll be up that way in the high peaks in a few weeks too.

Changed the brake pads today. Rear and left front were easy. Front right the pin got stuck on something and i had to take the calipers apart to get the pads out, put it all back together again and bled the brakes

I had an 1100 Virago too and wish the bars could be swapped, they were in such a perfect position for my hands. The BMW is fine, just different, but if there was one thing I could change...

I rode from Lancaster PA to Wilmington NC on Thursday and got poured on for a bit. Then yesterday i rode back to lancaster and nearly melted in the heat. It was sooooooo hhhaaawwwttt out. But it was a great ride. 1000 mile round trip.

Today my father in law, my son and i all worked together to change the oil, adjust the valves and replace the air filter. Took longer than i had anticipated but what a difference!! Valves were way out of spec and the oil was much older than I’m comfortable admitting lol and the air filter was...

I went to a bikes and coffee meet up this morning and spilled my coffee on my bike. Glad it was mine. The bike definitely stood out in the sea of Road Kings and Sportsters that were there. Quite a few people came over and asked questions and took pics. So that was nice.

I am thinking of moving mine a bit too so I don't have to take that cover off when I need it.

bummer! Be aware that when you do get a new one, if you order it from BMW you also need to order the grommets and the name plate. I tried finding grommets that worked and couldn't. I also rigged a tether to mine so if it falls off again I at least have a chance of hanging onto it lol

I ran a pigtail to the right side and hid it behind the cover. Positive got attached to the jump pin, and negative to the screw for the tool cover panel closest to it. But mine is a FE, so way less electronics involved. I'd be more careful if I had the B or TC...
