    BMW contacts in Europe.

    Folks I'm totally stumped for a solution to a problem with a BMW bike.
    Does anyone know of or participate in any BMW forums in Europe?
    Preferably the UK.
    I've tried google and its not helping me much.

    Whats the problem?

    Let me guess: the engine feels rough and runs awful, the gear changes are clunky at best and it corners like an elephant on a unicicle

    What sort of BMW? I think Motobins have a forum section. At any rate the guys there probably know as much about them as anyone in the world. flyingbrick.com is good for bricks. Brakes IMHE are no big problem providing you stick a horse syringe up y'arse,(well, the bikes arse, but whatever rocks y' boat) . Without said syringe nothing works. But if it has ABS and your computer thingy is rooted you're really stuffed. But the flashy light can be reset easily enough with a paperclip.
