Αυτες οι βλαβες ειναι ολες.......
6,000 miles: output shaft seal and clutch failure (replace both)

10,613 miles: rear mudguard sheared off from vibration (replaced, and that
one too failed at 31,000 miles.)

18,310 miles: clutch slave cylinder seal failed

19,192 miles: front brake discs warped (these discs had been installed new at 4,000 miles, when I changed the bike over to spoked wheels for the journey.)

22,735 miles: fuel gauge failure (fuel pump assembly replaced)

26,550 miles: fuel pump regulator failed (in Mexico. Pushed bike back to U.S.!)

31,000 miles; Rear mud guard sheared off again (weakness in mounting configuration)

35,600 miles: speedometer failure

37,700 mile: rear drive seal fails

38,420 miles: rear drive and brake rotor failed (rotor cupped)

38,420 miles: front discs warped again (for several thousand miles)

Quite a list, and several $1,000s more than I would hope to spend on a new bike!

The good news is that the R1200GS is a real work horse. I traveled fully-loaded for 11 months, through all kinds of weather and terrain.


And, for the past 15,000 miles it has required no repairs, other than tires and brake pads.

Ολα τα αλλα ειναι αναλωσιμα..τακακια,λαστιχα...

Να διαβασεις ολο το ημερολιγιο και οχι αποσπασματικα!! αυτο ειναι το πρωτο!!
Το δευτερο ειναι οτι τα ''good news'' καλα ειναι και ειναι οπως τα λες τα ''bad news'' ομως γιαστι δεν τα λες?

• BMW has addressed a number of the problems encountered on early models. (But if you've seen "Long Way Down", 2 of 3 new GSs in the film blew out their rear struts in the first leg of their trans-Africa trip. And they weren't even heavily-loaded - they had support vehicles carrying gear. So they still have "issues" to work on!)
• On several occasions, mechanics have identified the cause as "warped rotors". Now, I think they were mistaken. I think only the set of front rotors replaced at 18,192 miles was actually warped (characterized by a "pulsing" or "grabbing" sensation.)
• Leaking seal caused gear oil contamination of new clutch plate. All work was done under warranty. (This is the fourth clutch plate for this bike. Two were contaminated by oil seal leaks.)
• Transmission input shaft seal leak
  
  Problem identified by mechanics at Santa Rosa BMW today. Will pull transmission and repair next week.
• Over and above normal maintenance and service items, and apart from any damage caused by accidents, I've had to replace the components listed below. (I include brake components, since this machine seems to eat them up. As I write this, my front brake discs and rear brake pads are again in need of replacement.)
  
  The list is surprising, considering I'm a fairly conservative rider, have rarely taken the bike over 90 mph, avoid hard braking and unlike Charley Boorman on all his GS adventures, I've never done wheelies with this bike. I intend to hold on to it a long time (if I can afford it!)
  
  New, the bike cost $18,610, including panniers and top box. The "extraordinary" costs below, if paid out-of-pocket (a number of them were covered by warranty), would run another $15,000 - 80% of the cost of the new bike. (Parts, labor and tax rates vary widely, however based upon my first-hand experience, this is a fairly reasonable estimate.)
  
  I think it's time for another "conversation" with BMW of North America. What I would like to ask them: "is this considered normal 'wear and tear'?" If so, you might want to budget a bit higher when considering the purchase of a new BMW R1200GS (and check if the new "extended warranties" cover the following items.)
  
  Battery
  Brake disc, front (6)
  Brake disc, rear (3)(1 probably replaced unnecessarily)
  Brake pads, front (3 sets, 12 pads)
  Brake pads, rear (6 sets, 12 pads)
  Charcoal canister
  Clutch assembly (2)
  Clutch cable
  Drive shaft
  Drive shaft boots
  Fuel pump regulator (fuel pump electronics)(2)
  Fuel gauge (replaced fuel pump assembly)
  Seal, clutch input shaft
  Seal, rear axle, inner
  Seal, rear axle, outer (2)
  Seal, speedometer pick-up
  Seal, transmission, rear
  Speedometer (replaced instrument cluster)
  Splash guard rear(2)(Did not replace after 2nd one broke)
  Spring strut, front
  Spring strut, rear
  Starter
  Top box (iadequate fastening system)
  Transmissionn
  
  I see on-line that many GS owners have complained of corrosion, especially of the front engine (or alternator) cover. Some had the cover replaced under warranty. I noted this very early on, but simply considered it cosmetic and have never bothered.

Αν ειναι να πληρωσω αλλη μια μοτοσυκλετα μεσα σε 186000κμ για την οποια παραπανισσια οδηγικη απόλαυση.........καλυτερα η ανακυκλωση!!!!!
