Hoezit guys, advice please
My '09 800GS has just over 41,000k's on the clock and was recently serviced by BMW (so I assume they replaced filters??). Yesterday I had the first experience when towards the end of my commute between Pta and Roodepoort the bike just died on me - almost as if it had run out of fuel. Stop for a few seconds and then it fires up just fine.
The bike was fine this morning and then the same thing happens this afternoon - only this time it happens frequently when there's a lot of throttle variation (riding in traffic). No problems on the highway at constant speed.
The electrics are fine so I'm guessing that the problem is some kind of fuel starvation........is there anything else I should consider? ???
