Last weekend the
weather reached the upper 70's, which, anyone who lives in the PNW knows is not
something that happens often, and is great weather for taking the motorcycle
out for a ride. Unfortunately, as seems to be the case with the BMW, it
wouldn't start. After cranking it quite a bit it eventually started but ran
like crap. So, back to the dealer it went along with another video of the
problem.
On
the plus side, a
couple of days later when they called me, there wasn't any question of
the
issue like before, and lack of belief in was it was telling them. This
time the
guys at Ride West knew exactly what the problem was, another bad
injector. So they
replaced it and took the bike out for a few shakedown rides and told me I
could
pick it up today. I brought my helmet and jacket in to work, ready to
bus on over to the dealer after and get the bike. That was until they
called me
today. Today, I received another call that after the shakedown ride they
found
they also need to replace the fuel pump, which they ordered later in the
day
yesterday, and now the bike won't be ready until next week. So, I get
another
nice weekend in Seattle without a motorcycle. A motorcycle that I now
only want
to get running so I can sell it and stop having to deal with the piece
of junk.
