that explains it. To the trash...

I'm really surprised someone hasn't bought this. When I found it a few years ago, everyone wanted to know how to get one. At minium, it shows you to remove all the Tuppeware...

Sold the scooter yesterday, so I no longer need this. Covers all 2013 BMW motorcycles. Requires Windows operating system. This is a copy of the genuine BMW manual that the dealership uses. $25 with free shipping. As I won't monitor the board any longer, please contact me directly at...

After an Instrument Cluster update, my screen no longer worked. Tech had to plug in again, and set the upper and lower limits. I suspect your screen forgot where it is. The only way that I know to fix is to back to the dealer. My BMW manual doesn't give any other option.

BTW, flushed the brake system last week as the bike is 2 years old. Used a Mity Vac and pulled fresh fluid through. No problems and no issues with ABS.

FWIW, I have always found the scooter starts faster with the throttle cracked a bit. I've just gotten into the habit of twisting the throttle each time, hot or cold...

We have "chip seal" roads here in S Texas. Basically, jagged gravel glued down with tar. Got 4200 from the front, 4800 from the rear... Currently at 9300 and ready to do it again!

This brings up a thought. I've always fueled on the side stand. I'll try filling up on the center stand. Anyone else?

I work at a Yamaha dealership. We laughed about this when we got the email about the TMax. $10500 retail. I bought a brand new 2009 for $5900. It had sat in the showroom for 2 1/2 years...

On the secondary issue, you fill up, and the gauge never changes. You'll have a low fuel light inside of 100 miles.

Has anyone ever gotten a legitimate answer from BMW about our fuel gauge issues? Since new, after fill up, if you don't wait 20 seconds between turning on the key and starting the bike, the fuel gauge never updates. The other issue is, regardless of how long you wait, if the fuel gauge is 3/4 or...

SOLD! Thanks for playing

Having some health issues that periodically land me in the ER. Think our long trips will be in the motorhome. Thanks for asking. BTW, the case sold... Marty

Decided to no longer do long trips on the Beemer. I have a Coocase Gloss Black 48 liter top case, quick release mounting plate, and the Shad mounting hardware for the C650GT. Sorry to post to this forum, but the For Sale Forum looks kinda dead. It is posted there if anyone is interested...
