New 2019 BMW S1000RR: Rumour, Gossip and Intrigue...
- Thread starter SYLOCO
- Start date
Help Support S1000RR FORUM:
I think someone made a good point that this would delay only M-Sports. We're not hearing of any split yet so maybe we can't assume carbon supply.
Could be any number of common parts.

I was told if I ordered a basic RR or Sport RR i could have by aug my M-sport December so maybe there is something in the Carbon wheels causing the delays however there seems to be issues with the other models too but not pushed back that far.

My last comment on this thread so might be longish.
i had ordered a red sport with all options and the date for delivery changed 3 times the most recent change to 27th October. So whether the M or sport appears not difference.
i cancelled and am picking up my new V4 next Friday, I wasn?t going to be without a bike for the full season.
my dealer I cannot fault they were fantastic, offered everything they could to help it?s BMW that have caused the problem and the dealers are getting slaughtered by the customer because of it.
i won?t be back on a BMW due to their obvious incompetence and their attitude which was ?if he cancels his order he cancels someone else will buy it?
that to me is an absolute disgrace.
the next part to that is BMW have issued no reason for the delay they are saying nothing, not even to the dealers.
its a shame as I wanted one but the nonsense and attitude of BMW means I won?t ever buy a bmw again
Daz
Ps.
i do really hope it changes and everyone gets their bikes at a decent time of the year but bmw have lost this customer and I am sure I am one of many

Daz, totally understand your position bud. I am now seriously considering cancelling my pre order (put deposit last May) as it now looks I will not get my M Sport this year as BMW UK can now only tell me 2020 delivery. Speaking to a friend who works at a BMW dealership they are also concerned with not only customers not getting their bikes but effectively those dealers may lose customers for up to 3 years if customers tie themselves into, for example, a 3 year PCP with another brand.
It’s a shame BMW are not forthcoming with the supply issue. I would wait if they could give me a definitive date for collection.
Enjoy your V4, something I am looking at too.

I got my deposit back today. I know they say it?s non refundable but there is two ways to look at this.
Firstly if you payed a deposit it?s based on a product you have not seen and can not be held to legally.
Secondly in the small print if they are late in delivery you are required to request they satisfy delivery within a set period can?t remember of the top of my head (will be in small print on your sales agreement), however if this cannot be satisfied then you are entitled to your money back regardless.

100% correct in saying that any dealer can?t keep a deposit on a bike that you haven?t seen in person. So if you pay a deposit on a bike then go and view it you?re entitled to your deposit back for any reason.

I think you'll be sorry,there is so much mis-information and speculation from dealers.I have every confidence all will be revealed soon.
Still,the more people that cancel,the more likely it is that I'll get mine.So,thankyou for cancelling yours!
My dealer has just emailed me with the following statement from BMW to them..
'As previously advised, the new model will be launched in the UK on June 1 but in significantly reduced numbers. We do however expect many of the existing firm customers orders to be fulfilled by the end of August'.
Decisions, decisions...

Totally agree mate, I just needed a reasonable confirmed date and no can now give that to me. Yes, at least my order will be available to another customer.
IMO, it will be a an absolutely gem of a bike and hopefully those customer will receive theirs within an acceptable time frame.
