Re: Engine failure

I have now ridden my bike over 600 miles since I got it back from the shop and it has not missed a beat so I am now starting to believe that they fixed the problem and that it was just a minor ground issue.....really was not sure on the diagnosis. That was the first time that I had been to that deal...

Re: Engine failure

Thanks to all for taking the time to reply to my post. Finally got my bike back after it was in the shop for a month. They checked the computer and it had no fault codes. They checked the side stand switch and it was okay. They checked the wiring for shorts and found none. Last but not least they ch...

Re: 2008 FALL BASH MOVED TO EUREKA SPRINGS, ARKANSAS- Join us!!

Gypsy RR, Hi Kristi I have seen a few of your posts on the motorcycle cafe forum. I was going to go to Big Bend with them this year since I had so much fun last year. But last minute life issues made me have to cancel. I did go with them to North Carolina and rode the Dragon for the first time a few...

I have a 2002 Atlanta Blue bike and I ride with the Houston BMW Owners group. I try to make the Sunday rides leaving from the Denny's on 290 and 1960 which takes us up to Montgomery and then over to Navasota.

Re: Engine failure

Thanks for the reply guys. I appreciate the input. Over the weekend I talked to a lot of my riding buddies in the Houston BMW owners group and also looked at a lot of posts here. Everything indicates a wiring problem and I am amazed that the dealer does not have a competent enough mechanic that woul...

I am new to this forum so I read this post too late to go. I was at the Ozark Motel 6 months ago and had the best time. The roads are fantastic and I look forward to coming back. I am in Houston and hope to meet up with you guys soon.

Engine failure

I have a 2002 R1150R with 64,000 miles. Daughter and I were headed down the road at 70 or so and the motor just quit. Had to get a tow as I have no idea what the problem is. Felt as if someone had turned the ignition switch off but the lights were still on. Took to a BMW dealer and they say that the...
