Well yes I suppose that's right but I've had this with BMW aswell. Is there really a need to service a bike that's done less than 600 miles a year for that period? Also regardless of service history a bike of that mileage should not be blowing a bottom end

Na mate not at all. It's a route I've been down with him aswell. He's basically saying that it's a mechanical manufacturing failure which he cannot be held responsible for. I spoke to the financial ombudsman who says that if BMW say that it's not been a mechanical fault I can go after regal...

Yeah it's still running Mike. I'd imagine even if the running in procedure wasn't completed correctly I'd like to have thought it would have held out less than the 4000 miles and also it passed the checks after the run in procedure was completed so as far as I'm concerned it should all be good...

Do we have a contact for phil? I still believe this is Bmw issue but I've heard they will do anything to get out of fixing the bike

Cool I'm still chasing up actual andswers from BMW and I still have to escalate this with their complaints. I think this may be a long and drawn out process. Is there any engine guys in Scotland worth going too?

Hi guys thanks for the replies. Basically regal Superbikes told me that he only gave a 3 month warranty for the bike. I'd had it just over a year but had done only 700 miles in that year. Ideally I'd like to repair the engine to keep the engine no the same. With the bike being low miles that's...

Hey guys Very disgruntled owner here. My 2010 s1k recently let go (unknown to me at the time). It didn't sound too bad and thought it may have been the CCT . John Clark Aberdeen stripped top end and found all ok. Asked me for more money to strip engine and continue with the investigation. Turns...

I'll try get one uploaded tomo before I load it to the garage.

It's booked in Wednesday am for a tech to look over it. John Clark BMW are charging me 156 plus vat to investigate the issue and then diagnose what is wrong and what is required. I'm just praying for good news. My dads friend is a bike mechanic and he seems to think it's the camshaft and...

I'm in Aberdeen so I could take it up to John Clark Bmw in Aberdeen but they've worked on my bike before at 86.40 and hour which I'm not keen to pay. There are a few local bike mechanics which I imagine will be able to at least diagnose the issue .... I hope!! I'd love to keep it at John Clark...

Hey Mike The bike has a de cat Austin racing on it so exhaust valve has been bypassed.it Still has original headers so wondered if any sensors on headers were loose or knackered?! That video isn't of mine but I could try and upload one if needed. Would they be likely to entertain that...

Thanks for all the information guys. I'm just worried that this isn't on initial start up it's constant . Hopefully it's just chain slap as opposed to any internal damage. Would it be anything to do with coil packs or plugs. It would explain the loss in power but not really explain why there is...

Perfect mate. Thanks for that. BMW best to get them from or will the pull my pants down for parts as per......

Hahaha . Many layers of polish that's for sure. Although issues are now arising. If you guys are available have a look at my post in the garage "rattling/bike off a cylinder ? CCT....." any info would be great

Hey Ben Hard to tell from the video but it does sound rattly on start up but doesn't really get any better when it heats up or anything. Also just sounds as if it's off a cylinder . There are no fault lights or anything like that on the dash so I'm hoping it's nothing major. What is the best fix...
