Why did I bother reading this? The OP did not like the bike, cool. He does not get what BMW was after... Buy why come on this forum and let us know how unworthy the bike is? :smt102 I read this from time to time to get info, not read that gibberish. I am at over 21,000 miles and still loving this bi...

Here in Virginia I paid 201.52 for the service, better than some... Of course I also needed to replace the Conti Road Attack after 6k miles. So my wallet was another $200 lighter (plus $60 mounting fee!) for a Michelin Pilot Road.

Quote "I think that the bigger problem would be to have the clip fall off and loose the pin. It would be harder to replace. Mark" Well I Took the bags off to wash them and the bike and when I went to put them back on I found just that had happened. My BMW dealer said that this was the firs...
