I know this noise come from main bearing (I disconnected both fork legs to be sure ! )
I need to know if this is normal for BMW
Thanks

shouldnt do that
the bearing itself is a standard size,available from a wholesale supplier.
i can get the size code tommorrow if needed.
it can be a bit of an ass of a job to get the top yoke off though.
before stripping check the bar clamps are tight to ensure its not the risers moving ,causing the noise.
looks like a later model bike ,is it under warranty?

If its a sudden change make sure there are no cables snagging somewhere.
