ABS sorted

[jwpzx9r]

Just back from the BMW shop in Pau. The guy was very helpful and they sorted the abs problem out quickly. Don't know what the problem was but they never removeo any sensors , I think it was an electrics problem but not sure, but the brakes are working now. About the clutch slip they road tested the bike an obviously made the same observation that I did, guy told me to feed the throttle in and not give it a handful and it will be OK. They want to take the bike in and check the pushrod?? I don't absolutely know if that's what the guy ment but I though that was what he was trying to tell me, my French is not very good. Its amazing how much more confident you are riding when the warning lights are not flashing Hope thats the end of it because I love the bike already but I am the sort who really hates problems, thats why I bought a BMW I thought they were faultless Doh!

Great news your sorted.

Gotta love BM dealers.
" My clutch is slipping"
"ok, just accelerate gently and you won't notice it"
FFS.

The new BMW's don't come with any warranty, dealers are advising customers to cross their fingers, whistle and think "happy thoughts".

To be fair he only told me take it easy until the have had a proper shufftie at it

Glad it was an easy fix, for the brakes that is.

Hope the clutch gets sorted also, at least he noticed it too so they can do something for you.
