Hi...R2400

?

New Pirelli Scorpion Trail 2 for sale. 150/70 R17. Fits BMW GS1200 A/C R1600 0836286853

Glad u found the culprit. Get the mgnetic plug. I had very little  deposit on mine at the first oil change after the tentioner broke. Worth the piece of mind!

My 2007  1200 GS  have this rattle on start up and Iam sure I can hear it while riding out an uphill. Forums on the 1150 and early 1200,s suggests issues with the left tentioner.IS there anybody that actually found a fix to this.

Dont wait for it to sound sick......check the oil filter  after 50 km or so after oil change. ....wash it in parafin and check for shavings. If you find a lot of it and it is magnetic....have the engine opened while still in running state.  99%  of engine parts are still coôperating...,Find ...

Was the  original Doo replaced before it broke, and if it broke, were all the pices recovered.?mine broke late sunday afternoon, far from home. I had to take the chance and ride it. Piece if the tensioner got stuck in the sump below the gears. This caused shavings in the oil. Two oil changes and...

In other words............ u have done 300 000km in the seat of a GSA..extreme !! could this be a record..??.. .......is there anywhere u have not been to?

Good point.  I went right pased PuTSONDERWATER without stopping. Was to busy getting to KENHARDT. Must admit that , for my skill level, with luggage and wife on the back and a terrible gravel road, I was probably to nervous to look anywhere but UP.

Thanks guys....i won't be wasting money on tuning then!!  At least  finance planning for the next trip is easy . We run at R1 per km.....

So sad, RIP.....reminder to the rest of us to be always alert, disciplined. Unfortunately accidents happen when least expected . :-[

22kmpl..probably downhill in the gear between 1st and 2nd  LOL.  I must say that I got 15kmpl between Colesberg and Bloemfontein...wind from behind, cruising steady 130. Never ending Karoo straights seduced me for 150 km. Result at the petrol pump put the discipline right back in place......got...

I just completed a trip from nelspruit to the Northern Cape,  passing Kenhardt, down the West Coast to Durbanville in Cape Town.  From there  I went up the south coast,  turning inland just before PE. Then via Bloemfontein back to Nelspruit.  Total 4400 km. The bike was loaded with topbox ...
