Sound like your problem was dealer service related, not product related. One of my local dealer(BMW-Honda-Triumph) provide similar service to what you experienced to Honda and Triumph owners as well as BMW owners. I've learned to avoid going there but don't rag on Honda or Triumph products because of a piss poor dealer.RonH said:I had a BMW once, and it cost me more in dealer work in the 1500 miles I owned it than the Super Tenere has in 23,000. Zero on the super, the BMW a botched first service visit they installed 3 problems when I had zero before I took it in. Don't they still do stuff like "service engine" reminders that you can't shut off yourself even if you do your own service? When I had mine they charged like $100.00 for 1 minute work to shut off a warning lamp. I suppose there is always electrical tape or wire clippers, but seems really rediculous to have to hack to not get ripped off.
My "go to" dealer will reset the service indicator for free and they do it for any BMW rider that makes a request.
