Hi everyone, I'm looking for an old f650 in any condition, to pull-apart for my personal learning. Does anyone here have a deceased f650 lying around? I actually want a bike that does not run; I'm just planning on dissembling it and putting it back together again so I can really learn about...

Morning mates… :thumb: I was coming to work this morning with a speed around 100 Km. All sadden my engine when dead and the rev meter felt to 0. No warning light or anything else just the engine stops working for some reason.;Um: After a few seconds it fires up again and I continue to drive...

Any ideas what could have stopped my Headlight from working? The main beam still works and the parking light. I have checked the fuses And also tried the obvious of swapping the bulb. Any suggestions Please?

Hi Ive had the sprag gear replaced after doing some research on here (yes I actually used the search button), unfortunately it didnt solve the problem. Theres a grating noise on pressing the starter button, it takes quite a few tries to get it to start, and it will occasionally backfire while...

Went on the protest today and ran out of horn :wall: Unexpected and annoying, anoyone know what might get it working again? London's roads do not feel safe without it!! :naughty:

Hi, I have an F650GS year 2005, There was an attempted theft last night and they damaged the igition barrel, steering lock and front disk... :wall: Now also the alarm doesn't work either ON or OFF... Any ideas? I have I understand a factory fitted BMW alarm from Gemel and may be an E580 I...

Hi again, another thing i noticed is that the rear brake light switch (its the hydraulic version) is not functioning. when i cross the wires the brake light works..so the wiring seems fine... Any ideas or should i just buy a new switch??? thx once again. Lars

Swapped the bulb but that wasn't it then read the manual, noticed separate fuse for low beam but that wasn't it either so could it be the switch or is there a connector that is prone to parting? One of those jobs you think will be easy which turns out not to be - not that getting to the bulb is...

Hi ODOMETER Has anybody experience of the odometer not working? I've just had a sat system put on however the odometer now just has a series of dashes - no accumulative mileage occuring. The trip meter works but resets each time I switch it off. BMW say that this should not be occuring - 'no...

Good afternoon My lefthand indicators have stopped working on 2003 cs, the right side work fine. I have checked the indicators are pluged in to the connectors properly, should I be looking at replacing the multifunction switch, if so is it a big job and how much should I expect to pay for a new...

2 weeks ago,my pass/flash switch (on left hand controls) stopped working,the switch felt really stiff,but i thought OK i can live with it as you can easily flip from low beam to high beam to flash someone, then yesterday i noticed my horn wasnt working. Has anyone else had this happen, but...

Hi guys and gals. Got an infuriating problem. I'm sure the solution is straightforward, but having problems sorting it. In short, my horn has packed up! I have checked the fuses, looked at the wiring within the handlebar switch cluster; even removed the mudguard to check the terminal connection...

My bike has developed another fault. This time it's the indicators on the right hand side. The left hand works fine, but there's nothing on the right, no dash light or either indicator lighting up. Also, after the last visit to the dealers the bike came back with a continous clicking coming...

I've just gone to ride my bike for the first time in months and just when I really need the heated grips to work, they don't. It's only the RHS one, the left works fine. I had a low speed off earlier in the year and the bike went down on the RHS. It was relatively low speed, like at a...

The faq's say that the idle should be 13-1400 rpm, my bike is around this when warm; but, the choke doesn't seem to bring the revs up! Is there any way to check if the choke is working? Thanks. Jim.

hi Gazza just to let you know the bmw link doesnt work. i use http://forum.bmw-club.org.uk/ :-)

...as I found out when trying to warn some errant pedestrians on this evening's commute home :doh: Not the fuse as the headlight flasher still works and is on the same fuse. So.... anyone got any ideas where best to look first? Still under warranty so I can get sorted by dealers, but...

Ok, new bike picked up today. Am sure all lights were working when I set off home, but now the dashboard indicators light is not working :-( All indicators and all other dash lights are fine. I've tried swopping round the dash blulbs (i.e. used the redundant ABS bulb) but not good. Anyone...

Hi, I've noticed that the auto logon has stopped working now I have moved the site. If you are using MS IE, double click the no-entry sign over the eye at the bottom right of the browser. Right-click site 72.41.130.40 as select "always accept cookies from this site". This should fix the...

It's on a '94 Funduro. After I filled up tonight I tried to reset my miles, only to find the dial was stuck. I then tried a bit more, but it's like I'm turning a great big spring and it just returns to it's original position. Does anyone know what parts I need to replace to get this working? Is...
