He purchased it 5 months ago as the 2nd owner through the local BMW dealer. The previous owner had only put 1800km on it in 3 years (what a waste). Not only did they fix the SOS button they replaced his entire shaft drive under warranty even though he was having no problems at all. They just said BMW paid for it with no explanation as to the problem???
Final shaft problems in the year of our Loard 2022 ??
Man, that is some crappy engineering.
Man.
Considering how long they have been making this bike it is a poor reflection on their quality processes yes.
Maybe their implementation is still good enough for on-road-only use?
If not, then for their vehicles that are typically over-engineered, they really need to over-engineer that component.
