Neutral problems

[nhmaf]

You can still order the user manual from a BMW dealer.   somewhere around here is a thread with the part number for it.   I'll go out to the garage and find mine later today - I bought it from either Bob's BMW or MAX BMW or online through Capital Cycle.com a couple years ago..

I've tried a few different places, Max BMW, Bmw of Lynchburgh etc, and they all say it's no longer available.

There's a posting in this section, under Important Topics, it has a few different BMW part numbers, it may, or may not be of any help to you .

Lucky_Lou made a posting not too long ago, that he had the owners manual in PDF form, you may want to send him a PM, and see if he can get it sent to you .

On a somewhat related note, the neutral light on Britta is burned out, and apparently due to that she requires the clutch lever to be pulled in to start. Or at least says my local non-BMW mechanic. Starter won't even begin to spin even though actually in neutral w/o the lever in.

True, or false?  :-?

Turns out it was a stuck clutch plate. I put the bike on a stand, started it and got it warmed up. I was able to "pop" it into gear without it stalling and now it is working great. Thanks everyone for the advice. I am now going to change the tranny oil and do a thorough check up. I guess this is were it starts huh   ?

Cheers.

Good to hear, it was a 'quick' fix !

It can be a bit of work, to get the bike back into good running order, after the hard work is done, these bikes don't require too much caring for .

You'll have years of enjoyment with it .
