Belgian Clutch change question

[richie]

Gecko Migsel et all,

I might need a clutch change and it looks like I might not be able to work it out with Steptoe (unfortunatly) I have only ever used BMW brussels and Faignoy...

Who would you recommend me to use and could you ask them in Flemmish for a quote....

BTW Faignoy, say between 600 and 800 euros....


Gulp....

Richie,

A new "koppeling" is what you need (if you didn't know that already) I had mine done in the Hague and ride-in ride-out it cost about 700 Euro about a year ago.

Maybe this helps?

Hi David,

What KMS are you on now, and were you on when you had it changed. Mines coming up to 90K KM

Had it changed at around 62/63k, now at 97 and still going strong

Hi Richie,

I asked about it last year at Motorhuis Hasselt and they said about 500 euros if I remember correctly.

It's on the other side of Belgium, but you could send them an e-mail to ask (see site). I'm quite sure they'll understand English.

Or else you put this in your e-mail:

Beste,

Mag ik van u een prijsofferte voor het vervangen van de koppeling van mijn R1100GS aub?

Met vriendelijke groet,

PS If all else fails, I have a good workshop manual

Thanks Migsel, I must admit that 500 euros is more appealing than more. As far as the workshopmanual is concerned, I think not....

The clutch is always an expensive option if you don't do it yourself. You have to split the bike, basically, and they spend 3 hours taking the thing apart, before they even get to start on the clutch, and another 3 putting it back together again.

Michel to the rescue, he seems to know all the cheapest places!!

PM'd you as well Richie
