Is that a DDC rear shock at all? I didn't know, but can a DDC rear shock be serviced? Apologies if it is a conventional shock, I'll get my coat....
I believe the conventional shocks are sealed units and should not be serviced... Of course, some people can drill in to them to service them. I'm still thinking about whether i'm going to put a new shock on my 12 year old bike, It definitely feels as if it needs one some days...
^ that. Can't be serviced.

No they can be serviced
IF... you drill into the sealed unit, which BMW don't want/expect you to do... that's defo the case for non-DDC OEM rear suspension - I can't speak for DDC unit, I was clarifying Mr Smooth's suggestion/question re servicabilirt of nonDDC.

Thanks to Ajj and Colin for coming over todayā¦.i miss riding but need to pull my finger out and investigate loss of power on the last day at Mugello earlier this year. The more wiser people have suggested its the ignition coils so have picked up 1 full set of 2nd hand ones.... Just need to get the tank off and have a dig around... watch a few YT videos and FB DIY Mechanics make it seem simple enough but hate it when I have a couple of screws left in the tray.... if anyone is around to give a helping hand (Carshalton, Surrey) .... beer/curry tea/biscuits are available...
I do have an infra red temp gun.... I guess need to start with knowing which one is duff
The cable tie trick was easy enough and all 4 changed over

@IMORTAL_Indian It was good meeting you and Colin. Thanks for the bacon butty and cups of tea.
Try swapping the rear servo buddy with the front one, then see what error code you get.

I thought you had a full Akra system and no servo's connected thus this warning is nothing to be concerned about.
Apparently servo buddies installed, so this error should not register.
Clear it and see if it re-registers?
If is can't be cleared it was probably was registered when the exhaust was swapped out and isn't current.

Any paint product that's applied to the guards will chip off fairly easily unfortunately
