Erling:
Sorry no had to ride pillion on friends BMW home.
Left all luggage on dealers workshop floor.
Only about 8-900 km still to ride.
Think we changed every tank fill.
Wait a fortnight for return in the Mini Cooper.
Took the dealer that long to get an engine.
But actually changing the engines was no big deal.
Had some practise from my first BMW an R69S.
That particular model had a vibrations problem!
After a couple of years a modified engine with a vibrations damper was introduced.
So I had 2 engines to swap every other year as they still had internal problems.
Since boyhood I had dreamed of a BMW. And indeed I still prefer it for long runs.
Wife too feel better on it for vacation trips to Italy.
Erling.
