The Story behind and even another picture.

From 'OSM62's' German Forum

A few facts to the circumstances.
K1200R
New 28.aug.05.
1.000er inspection 26.sep.05
Black Forest tour 06.-09.10.05
total kilometer: 2,384 KM

"The Exitus" gave notice itself with a rattling and lacking propulsion at the speed 130 km/h. After also a little smoke have 'raised', I pulled the clutch. God was to be thanked that I was on vicinity of a Restarea and so was able to roll right out.
Stocktaking. Conrod through motor block. Reason: unknown, the BMW need to be tended to.
Before someone types on oil deficiency; yet enough was left even after the insident inside Engine! It simply happened without preliminary announcement.

Must say that I would not like to meet spesific motorcycle no longer. I like the KR very and want to have one again, but not that one! I must see, what one can get out of this.

I am disappointed on all cases rather, all things considered, the other trifles (brakes squeaking, staggering, constant load jerk el and and and). Am once strained how the further flow develops.
