    Kirk thank you kindly for continuing to put out content all these years. Ive just purchased an 01 with 33.5k miles and have saved myself likely thousands in shop repairs by following your guides. My final feels a bit squirrely so I'll be checking for play in the rear wheel today.

    I’ll be checking mine on my 2003 k1200 GT since I’m in the process of changing the clutch using your videos as a guide of course

    I just bought a 2003 k1200 LT and the final driver caught fire bringing it home the day I bought it. Not even a 15 miles trip. I’m down to figure out how to fix this issue on my own following your great videos. Much appreciated.

    2000 LT with 97,000 and no problems yet. But some how when Kurt gives me a heads up the problem shows up. Sometimes I don't know if I should thank him or blame him.😊

    Thank you for all your hard work,you've been a life save over the years .Our 04 K1200RS is heavy steering with only 10K miles I wonder what your opinion is.Ball joints? going to tear into it this fall

    • @kirksmotorrad

      Ball joints can certainly go bad. At least jack up the front and see what is going on. 10k is pretty low miles

    Mine failed last week at the end of a 500 mile trip I knew it was a matter of time I have a spare but want to rebuild the original 04 R1150GS 47,000 miles.

    So many issues with these BMWs…
    I went to see a beautiful looking 05’ the guy started the bike out and it just spewed fuel from the undercarriage… so disappointing but lucky me 😅😅

    They have only been doing shaft drive for 100yrs. You would think they would have it down by now. Any Japanese bikes with failing shaft drives?

      If you ask BMW about it they say "Ziss is Zee first time Vee are hearing about ziss! Zere has never been a problem vith zem! "

      I can honestly say though I have owned three. A 75/5, 75/6, 77, R100 and never had any problems. Zero

    I am waiting for the solution of that gap with 4 eyes.

    • @kirksmotorrad
      @kirksmotorrad  ปีที่แล้ว

      The solution is to have it rebuilt properly.
