[QUOTE="Tbird, post: 477403, member: 4316"] Man... As a former owner of a BMW K1200LT (who traded it in for the FJR) three of those pics put a chill down my spine. I got rid of mine for other reasons...but in the back of my mind I perceived the RD as a possible ticking timebomb... never knowing how far from the nearest (widely spaced) BMW service shop you'll be when one lets go. ***UPDATE EDIT*** The rider is a forum member on the BMWLT page I still frequent. He was heading to their annual LT meeting (their NAFO) in Midway, UT. His bike is a 00' model with 77K mi on the odo. Kind of high mileage...but no excuse for BMW to NOT take care of this well documented issue. On that list he expressed great appreciation for the guys from this list and the AZbeemers who helped him out. [/QUOTE]
