My job is to get this motorcycle roadworthy and still have enough money left to eat! The bike will have to do 1000miles in a day and still allow me to walk afterwards.

I thought mine was bad, luckily the abs has been removed on mine but you wait till you look at the electrics and anything else. They are a money and time pit!

It needs to do 1000miles in a day for my Cancer Research challenge. So, bye bye weekends and money 💰 😀

@theoldgraywindpassertest Hope you aint planning on it happening soon, been trying to get mine sorted for a year. Can recommend Motorworks though for parts. Always get better than I take off.

​@stevebonner9108 thankfully I have over a year to get it right and a Multistrada to enjoy 😉 Your spot on about Motorworks, just bought a fuel pump from ebay and the hoses don't align.... What needs doing to yours?

@@theoldgraywindpassertest At the minute I feel everything. Was supposed to be a good bike but only done 100 miles in the year before I brought it. Gave it a full service, developed fuel leaks, lack of power - it's always been like it. Play in the rear end, all bearings replaced. New pattern injectors, second hand lamba sensor. Buggered wiring all totally corroded. Had to drill exhaust studs out and the list goes on. Thank god I've got my MT07 to use as bikes are my only mode of transport.

how about soaking everything in wd40 and leave for a few days, soaking again daily? good luck.

Do they sell 300 litre bath tubs of it?? I'm thinking of buying shares in WD40 😂

That era of BMW's seem to come with plenty of Loctite and some fasteners seem to self weld if corrosion has set in. Keep your swear jar handy!

Swear jar? I have a swear barrel! 😁
