I’m getting a loud ‘click’ and the engine stumbles... I first thought it was coming from a valve block or something under the tank, but do now think its RHS de-compression thing catching every now and again.
Only does it when the bike is warm and when standing at lights etc... 10 revs and a click, stumble.... 10 revs and a click, stumble... and so on... think its classic decompressor thing..
So I’ve taken it in for BMW to have a look at. Bike out of warranty (2015) but only done 14K with full BMWSH... they will take a look for free
I know there is a new exhaust cam they can fit that has a weaker spring (I think) so the de-compressor flings out sooner and stays out at 1000 rpm...
Has anyone had the upgrade.. does it work?
Or, what happens if you leave it to click... is it detrimental at all over time?
They think they can get BMW to contribute... but what do you think this is going to cost if I have it done... what labour time is involved?
Not good
