Well – we almost got off to a rough start!
Sawyer called me at 9 PM yesterday 7/8 – to tell me that BMW had a recall this week on 07 and 08 GS’s (which represents 3 of our 5 bikes). This recall was for the ignition system and apparently they were having problems with them going out, and if they did – the bike would be TOTALLY dead. This was happening to roughly 10% of the bikes which meant we had a 30% chance of a problem given that we had 3 possibly affected bikes.
Rick and I got ours in and spent the afternoon at Brown BMW (playing online poker) while they were nice enough to quickly get them in and out for us. Sawyer was not so lucky as his dealer could not get his bike in prior to the trip – but did provide him with the part and basic instruction should he have an issue on the road – let’s hope not.
Tomorrow AM it is GO TIME!
