    I have 1 shock leaking oil

    There is fluid i the front forks i saw it with my own eyes. When i came home from vacation. Bike was in my storage building and where the bikes front wheel was there was fluid coming from the front forks. They will need to drain the brake fluid as well and rebuild the front forks on both sides.

    This is a good idea for everyone on bikes

    That's in the U.K. Not here in the U.S. I do use the hazards to warn people behind me that i am there. Also i have the brake as well. It's a GOOD idea to be seen and then i turn them OFF when the car is stopped Cuz i do NOT ever want to be rear ended

    This is a good idea for everyone on bikes

    I do leave enough space between me & cars about 5 ft. But then you get those A hats that will move into that 5 ft spot for what reason i do NOT know.

    So i emailed BMW U.S.A.

    The Tech checked the valves at 6k mileage and he did HEAR the what sounded like valves tapping. But it's not he said it was something down in the motor by the crankshaft. I am not very good at explaining stuff so bare with me. The lagging issue is when i take off from a start it feels like...
