Looking for some tech advice from you lot 'who know stuff'....
R9T, 2016, 6000 miles, FSH.
K&N air filter fitted by the previous owner.
I decided that I would take the tank off to clean and ACF50 - generally fettle with things. Whilst there I thought I'd check the air filter as although I was told it had a K&N fitted I'd never checked and wanted to see if it needed cleaning.
Yes its fitted and yes it might benefit from a clean. No issue there.
But - inside the airbox is lined with oil, messy stuff all over the place. Photo below.
Is this normal?
Bit too much oil by the previous owner?
An issue with the bike that BMW need to review?
Thanks for any advice, I would really appreciate it.
