Fix for one thing, but mechanic finds something else

Post by Tones »

Had the bike in to get the whining final drive issue sorted, rather corroded crown bearing, no play, just rust.
However he also found that the drive shaft hadn't been fitted correctly after a new clutch was fitted 18 months ago.
So glad he fixed it as not sure what the long term consequences would have been.
Any way good service from Graham's motorcycles in Bradford, would highly recommend.

Tones,
That's encouraging to hear of a positive endorsement of a Beemer Motorrad dealer in t'North!👍😉

I don't think they're an official BMW dealer ?
