Re: 10W40 - But not a new oil thread

My experience.
Symptoms:

- for a second or two tapping noise from engine after starting
- running cold engine- no noise
- when hot, tapping appears again (just like an diesel engine ;) )

After upgradeing Cam tensioner all symptomes are gone, just pure and sweet sound of boxer engine.

When I need adrenaline or making longer trip BMW is my choice, if just chilling- K-650 is the one. Short slideshow about renovating it: http://www.zon...

Headlight lens

Hi, I have a trouble with ordering headlight lens. Got one today from local BMW dealer ( item nr 63121358147, code on lens: 1305604017), but it is too large. Is there different lenses and headlamps available? I have 2002 R1150R, visible part of lens must be 17 cm ( + edge covered by collar). If some...
