UNITED we aren't
this is exactly what i mean. my approach and my use of this site was wrong in that none of you quite get the point.

Your bike is about to self destruct. There is no stopping it. It's going to cost you a bajillion dollars to fix it. There are Aryans in Germany laughing at the price. They are counting the profits of weakly built servo parts.
Freedom is dangerous. Those in power that steal freedom are more dangerous.

R, I think your approach is slightly flawed here.
Not everyone maintains a record of all the failures they've ever heard about (nor would want to tbh), but I'm sure that if someone did want to record all the failures then a pleasantly worded request would garner some decent respones.
But shouting* that you're disappointed with our responses when all you've done is made a couple of rants and a couple of impersonal, aggressive personal messages is not going to get you anywhere.
In effect you've walked into a bar and openly stated "I think the shrieff is a dingle", and been disappointed that we haven't all risen up to follow you and raze the jail to the ground, then shouted "YOU'RE ALL dingle!" and are about to stomp off.
Obviously that's NOT what you've done - but that's the closest analagy I can come up with.

* on the internet, caps lock is the equivalent of shouting.

I can understand your frustration...but you should also understand that most of us here love our bikes and have no real issues with BMW or our dealers.
If you have any questions about oil, tires, seats, screens or even kill switches...You have the right place..
Do a ride, take some pics..and post in the 'Great Rides' section and join in on the fun here.
btw...Welcome aboard..
