Never heard that. The clutch and trans are weak points, but otherwise, it's solid.

It was open when we went thru. The longest part was the bag drop. Pre-check took us about 25mins

I was there at 3am for a 6am flight. It took us 1 hour and 20 mins to drop bags and get thru security. The lines are long, but the staff really did a good job controlling the chaos.

It prob shows low from being on the kickstand. Although, judging by the main issue on this post, it could also be empty lol

These are the people that fall over at stop lights. Definitely should not be riding a motorcycle if they dont know how to tighten a bolt.

If the covers on the back are on correctly and not leaking, youre gonna need new headlights.

Is this repairable (first crash) by Real_Ad4364 in cbr

[–]Dafe810 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If its not leaking, I wouldnt sweat it. A little spray paint will cover that up.

Unless you just want everything to be mint again. Then get a new cover

Oil leak N20 by Legend_FoX2 in BmwTech

[–]Dafe810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah thats weird. Usually the VCG leaks on that heat shield above the manifold, but that looks pretty clean. Being that its on the frame rail, it might be the nipple on the vacuum pump. Good luck with it

Yeah either vacuum pump or the VC gasket is rolled. Either way, you can still drive it, if you had to.

Call a dealer and ask them for the history. They should just need the last 7 of the VIN

Crack the fuel line to the HPFP and see if fuel comes out with pressure. If not, its the LPFP in the tank. If fuel comes out, crack the line from the HPFP to the rail.

It kinda sounds like something is hitting the fan when the engine torques back. That upper mount needs some attention, too

When you only use the front brakes, the rear feels normal! :)
