I have the same bike with same miles and sat for a few years also.although the fuel pump works fine it apparently has a fuel leak. I can't figure out where it's coming from. It doe snt appear to drip on the ground but the smell is intense. Any ideas ?
@@AnythingJames Yes it is ! They were aware of the issue and replaced the whole fuel pump and seals with a 2yr warranty all for no charge. I had them replace the fuel strip while it was apart also so now the gas gauge works. It’s ready to go. I’m excited. I bought a new Shoei helmet in blue to match so I’m planning a ride tomorrow that will be my first real ride on it other than a few around town rides. So thanks you guys for the info and support !

In case your not aware there is a safety recall on your bike for a leaking fuel pump flange ...repair at no cost at the BMW dealership
@@billiondollarbabies3235 Even now in 2024 ? It’s a 2006 ?
@@billiondollarbabies3235 I just called a dealership and they said it would be covered if the recall is still in effect. Thanks for the advice !
I was going to say it’s a recall also. But someone beat me to it… hope the bikes fixed.
