Hi, Odile!
Sounds like it may be running too lean on ethanol. Can you get gas without it? There are rumblings that there may be a computer upgrade. Ask your dealer.
Or so Paul tells me

I try every Super I can find and we don't get a lot of ethanol gas uphere but it doesn't change a thing... it's a non-permanent problem and they can't reproduce it at the dealership....grrrrrr...Originally Posted by Voni

The Airbox has already been replaced twice on this bike...and so on...
Hopefully the bike is still under warranty... and I'm still waiting for a return call from the BMW canadian headquarter in Toronto since last week...
But I don't want to pollute this thread with my problem.

Thank you! Moab was fun.Welcome, and thanks for posting. And nice looking bike!
It's great to see someone that enjoys playing in the dirt.
I rode through Moab fall 2008. Can't wait to go back.

Welcome Odile. Nice looking bike and nice mileage!! Have you posed your stalling trouble in the Wedge K-bike forum? Someone there might be able to help.Here is my '07 K1200GT with +\- 50 000 miles on it. I'm sad it's a sick bike suffering from the low speed stalling syndrome... grrrr...
Love the bike but I don't trust it.
Hello Voni!
Odile
Hope you are able to resolve the problem. Nothing worse than worry.
p.s. Older IS wiser.

Here is a picture of my 97 F650ST. I hope this isn't the last ride of the season, but sure had fun today and the weather was perfect! We did put the old R/90 away for the winter. I was hoping for some fall foliage, but everything is gone....Terry

Great picture! What kind of engine bars are on that bike? If I had stuck around Hunter for more than an hour I guess I would have seen them up close.

Hi all, I finally have (or will tomorrow) my very own beemer! Heading down in the morning to pick it up. 2003 R1150RT...blue!! I'm pretty excited...
My hubby has a C and a CL and I have a Honda Shadow, which I also love. He says now he can ride a different bike to work every day of the week.(We also have our daughter's bike in the garage...)
I will post a pic tomorrow when I have it in my hot little hands.
We are riding to the rally so hope to meet lots of you there.

7,000 - 8,000 miles last summer, not much compared to some of you! I hope to do more this summer. New bike, boots, helmet, OMG, I feel my blood pressure rising I'm so excited to ride! Looking at these photos is so inspiring! Hope to meet you all at the National! I just wish it would warm up and the wind would stop!
Once I get out on the new bike I'll post a cheese cake shot. She's pearly white! Maybe PERLYQ for a licsense plate? like the Pearly Queens in London who sewed pearl buttons all over their clothing! Oh jeeze! I gotta ride! Sorry to babble! Let me out of here! It's beem a long, long winter!
Pictures! We want pictures, Malaszka & Kellysbeemer. And 8k is very respectful, Malaska.
Bet you exceed that this year, new bike and gear and all. Now go take your blood pressure meds. LOL
I, on the other hand, finally got my baby out of storage this morning, after 3 1/2 months without it. She was mad at me, but after a few minutes on the road, we were all good.
