Well I don't have a BMW car but I do have a BMW bike. Does that count?

I have a 2017 S1000RR and on the bike side of things, it's been good. It has seen 2 trackdays at the Ridge and had 2 scheduled services and so far it's nothing but smooth sailing.

Unfortunately it only has about 5,000km on the odometer as I haven't had much time to ride it with all the press media vehicles that I get but one of my friends had the S1000R for a while and he put about 25,000km on it with no major issues. The only issue he had were of his own doing because he kept pulling wheelies. So some suspension bushings had to get replaced.

But for those thinking of going to a BMW bike, I'll keep you posted on this thread of any issues I have with mine.
