Hi Dogs

A week ago i had my first ever bad experience with my dakkie, the chain broke while is was doing about 120km/h on the R21 Highway.... was not nice - Just a big bang ! Fortunately everything worked out OK & the chain came out at the back and i managed to stop safely next to the road.

I need to get my bike fixed again. I will definitely need a new chain and maybe new sprockets as well. With the big bang the front sprocket housing broke (The aluminium part around the front sprocket) this also needs to be replaced.

I know the first option is to go to the BMW dealers so that they can fix it for me but they will definitely over charge me for this.

Does anyone know of someone that can help me to get my friend back on the road without having to sell my house to do it.

Any help Will be highly appreciated.
