To further add to sgoodwin's reply.
This is predominantly a BMW R1100S and R1200S motorcycle forum, not really a generic boxer engine or BMW brand/model forum. It is a forum for a niche of (kind of) unusual BMW motorcycles models.
It also was / and is a "tech forum" although there are general discussions these days on travel, rides and group meets also. So, yes it will amplify repairs because that was the intent of the forum.
BMW's also had a reputation of being "bulletproof" and "reliable" motorcycles. That's how a lot of people look at the bikes before owning one. Ha-Ha! Anyone here knows that isn't the case in reality. Stuff happens, just like any other brand. And sometimes, often, repairs are going to cost a small fortune, and you need to be able to get the parts. Genuine BMW parts are starting to disappear off the dealer parts fiche's. Fortunately, there are some aftermarket replacements out there at Beemer Boneyard, or Euro Motoelectrics....
