The foot peg tend to vibrate on uneven road or when hitting bad surface , detail investigation found the peg gap and it's bracket is abit wide and the base contact is small. solution to ease out the vibration .

1) rubber sheet glue on the contact base .

2) washer to close up the gap.peg still can move smoothly up down

It's work .....

Guys, how is the standard of bike shops servicing GS as compare to PML now?

Any garages specialize in doing BMW? Really do not like the idea of die die must let PML doing all the servicing and repair jobs.

I did a comparison on other brands, I found that the welding are quite standard for a crash bar. The only diff is colors (black, polish or matt silver)

Hi Sean, having reliable bike shops that have trained mechanics with the right equipment to diagnose your bike are as good as PML. Can't really compare the standards at PML coz customers are out of bounds. For me.. I go for the one that I'm comfortable with. As for 'specialize' garages.. it comes with a price..

I don't have any recommended shops bro.. Maybe we need to try and judge for ourselves if these shops really live up to what they claimed to be 'specialized' bmw!!

Meng Tong left long ago.... he's now with Sportings at Autobay

 

Mtechnic to me is more an accessory shop then a mechanic shop although many beemer riders go there for simple works. Then again for simple works I suppose any reputable shop also boleh?

Hi all

 

Any reccomended headlight protector for the f700gs or f800? Price and where to buy? I saw Cee Baileys at 39USD plus shipping of another 35 usd.

Also. Anyone tried soft side bags and rack from happy trails? I think the soft side bags are more storage friendly hen you are not travelling up north with them...any review would be appreciated.

Hi guys,

 

I'm planning to get F800GS or F700GS.

Can anyone advise if F800GS worth the extra $$?

 

Plan to use the bike for daily commute to work only.

Further, I'm quite short, so 1200GS is definitely out of my reach.

How to verify the used bike is actually from PML? Call to ask?

Thanks.

Collecting my F700gs soon. Also using for commute. Likes..shorter,tubeless tyres vs tubed in 800. Looks wise, i thought the 800 looked more garang and they also had glacier white. You do lose 10hp to the 800. Like they say..dont hope to catch the 1200 on highway...i can live with this...can you?

 

How to know its from PML ... I think hey dont sell thru anyone else..so go to pml at alexandra road i guess...
