BMW WARRANTY-replacement vehicle

Do they only give out cars, or can they provide bikes?

Thanks.

AFAIK. If it's a car you get a car, bike for bike.

I was told today they only provide cars. Will call them again in the morning

Oh dear Amit, what's up with your bike? Sounds like major repairs.

Hey Rob. Battery is being drained while at being ridden. Stator or Reg/Rec issue.
It?s at Bahnstormer today. Hopefully get it back soon enough.

Hopefully they will fix it quickly, but electrical gremlims can take time to find,
Hope you get a replacement bike. Cheers, Rob

You should get a replacement bike for the duration. I've had both my Gen 3 and 4 have warranty work. The gen 3 I had needed recovering and Roadside assist asked if i would require a bike and said they would deliver one to me! The Gen 4 (Present) also need a fair bit of work and Oxford gave me an R Nine T for a week, they said i could change if i wanted. But I liked the idea of trying out my inner hipster.

For warranty work they don't have to provide you with anything.

For roadside assistance (breakdown as above) then you will get a hire car/bike (I've only ever been offered a car) while they fix it

So they never called me for a hire car?. Which is not the end of the world?.

However they think the cause of the battery drain is the BikeTrac unit ?.?

They have sent if off for a new internal battery. Not convinced but let?s hope that?s the cause.

Hope that sorts the issue. I assume they checked the regulator/rectifier and charging circuit? My Biketrac unit does drain the battery if bike not used for a few weeks, but it shouldn't drain while bike in use.
