Just in case anyone is remotely interested, had the bike in the workshop at AJ?s today, a software update and the ride height sensor calibrated to the pcm, problem is finally sorted. A big THANKS to all the staff there who were only too happy to help- in complete contrast with my local BMW...

Done this many times

I?m in Nottingham unfortunately, I?ve just read a similar of a similar problem on a 1000r, his needed a factory reset/calibration, a dealer only job, I can put mine on the paddock stand and go through every permutation of mode and ddc +- setting and can?t feel ( by bouncing on the rear) the...

No, that?s actually a good idea, the ddc calibrates ok, I?m pretty sure it?s something that I?ll have to go to the dealer for, it feels like it?s stuck in super stiff setting, I can?t remember for sure but I think that when it?s working correctly when you turn the ignition on the suspension...

Absolutely, but I?ve been chasing this problem since September, there is no discernible difference in feel regardless of which mode I have it in or +7 compared to-7, it?s stiffer than my lads race bike

I?m having problems with the DDC on my 18 RR, the bike is super stiff regardless of which mode I?m in or how soft I set the damping, it?s as if the suspension is stuck in race mode + full stiff damping. If I turn the bike off then the suspension is rock solid as always but with the ignition on I...

I picked up a nail on my way home from having a new tyre fitted, had it plugged and rode steadily for Mmm 25 miles and then checked the pressure, did another 2000 miles including 50 laps of the ?ring? never lost an ounce of pressure ?

I?ve got a ?standard? sport seat, 0 miles that I?ll swap for the M if anyone is interested?

Mine is still doing it after 3k miles, assembly grease is usually worn off within the running in period

Sorry pal, but I'm going!! doing the 'ring-green hell' Friday Saturday and Monday, taking in the show on sunday, hopefully i'll be drooling over the 2015 R1, s 1000rr and maybe a x plane gixxer if rumours turn out true.

jeez!! what's up with me?? 36mm socket, 100nm torque,

Hold that-----28mm is thread size---32mm socket, sorry!!

28 mm --100nm

Definitely not,, wouldn't jump back when loosening the tension, it's an either or situation, quiet and tight, or rattly and free, engine being stripped today.

Just back from supplying dealer, mechanic agrees somethings not right, he's promised me he'll do all he can to identify/solve it.....that'll do for me, they gave me there 14 RR to use while mines in bits, in a lot of ways I prefer it over the HP, it's like the HP's hooligan brother, far better...

I know them well, top lads matt is your man, sam and pete are the owners, yes they've got reset tool 01159216958

Trying to picture what's going on inside, if overtightening the chain shuts her up then it must be worn chain or worn cam bearings or broken chain guides or intermediate gear shaft, remember, I complained about this within 5 minutes 1/3rd of a mile of picking the bike up, 2500 miles and 6 weeks...

Right----scrub that, just been for a ride and she's as quiet as a mouse, problem is the bike feels like I'm riding into a headwind/resting my foot on the brake pedal, when I rev the engine, I can hear the chain whining slightly, and it just feels tight and none responsive, back off the tensioner...

2012 red/white, 13k bmw history, 9k against hp4 in june.

SO....bit the bullet and had a look myself, CCT is a notchy piece of shit not worthy of 500 quids worth of Chinese moped, fitted and adjusted an APE and she's sweet as.......SORTED!!! lost faith in bmw though.
