Agree that it is unlikely - but if you are unlucky enough to have the seals go on both sides of the pump, you could get both water and oil out of the weep hole - only seen it reported once (was on Adv Rider of F800Rider) - you mostly see reports of one or the other. I have also seen reports of...

As has been mentioned, there are no know instances of serious failures as a result of this weeping - I replaced mine the first time - the second time I just ignored it and the engine ran for another 60 000kms until it died of something completely unrelated.  I would only really worry if you are...

If you look at the pics - the impeller runs on the threaded shaft - that is the 'water' side - so if you are getting water out the weep-hole, it has gone through the internal shaft seal (not possible past the O-rings) which is not replaceable. Oil, on the other hand could push past a faulty...

If it was abused during break-in, those events would be recorded on the computer and BMW would have repudiated the warrantee claim.

The word in red is the one that worries me most in this thread - why is he in your Gym vest?

Not any more. I do still have a very broken incomplete motor in the garage - but not much useable on it now - maybe a cover or so.

Yes - decide how you want to use your cig lighter. The 10A is just a fused wire directly to the battery - so good for compressor, etc. The 1A is perfect for things like charging / powering a GPS. Don't worry about messing with the harness because you are not - those spade connectors are placed...

Both connectors (ACC1 and ACC2 are in the compartment under the cig socket - you can swop it to be either the 1A can-bus protected switched with ignition connection (ACC2) or the stock direct 10A (ACC1) fused (small fusebox in the tail unit) connection. ACC1 and ACC2 are also present in the...

On a number of the earlier models, the clutch cable was the wrong length and ran out of adjustment earlier - I know of quite a few people that moved the one adjustment locknut to the other side of the bracket (careful - don't break that bracket/pillar - it is brittle and will cost you a new...

That is normal if you are in a well lit area (daylight) and you have the LED light (DRL as Bundu says) configured to be on. In the dark, the dim light should remain on.

Can I suggest that you let us know where the bikes are (CT, Jhb, etc) and post some pics. Also let people know if they are roadworthy and licenced.

Andy, do you have a reasonably recent design (Gen 5 plus ?)  that will work on a KTM 1190 Adv? (PS : I will split this post from the thread and move if it grows arms and legs)

Email sent with service info.

I had exactly the same on mine - I ended up ordering a service kit from the suppliers in Aus - they shipped to me no problem. The kit includes a replacement arm and pin - the pin wears a lot. It also has a comprehensive service instruction set - I will see if I can get a copy from the guy that I...

The best plan with these is to store it in the back of the garage. One day when selling the bike, put it back on and flog the aftermarket pipe - you will get a lot more that way and you wont get more for the bike with the aftermarket one on.

Most often battery - it's very sensitive to a battery that not in great condition. 2014 and before - has the recall been done to fix the battery harness? Naturally first check the obvious - plug that connects to rear suspension and under the seat.

Sorry to see this, Martin. All the best healing up!! If you need anything from work - or just ferried around in general, shout!
