  • Have a problem with my TGS 35/440

    Hello for the first time here and I’m in despair can help me further. So if I switch under load on the mountain then comes out of the air filter housing a very loud popping noise as if a rubber hose pulls together and suddenly breaks apart again Plöppt ( very loud ). I’ve been in the workshop many times which have already exchanged everything possible (charge air cooler , Turbo , AGR , air filter housing ) the problem is already from the beginning and this is No vember 2008 when I set up the box was probably already 6 weeks at a time in the workshop. Furthermore, if I hold my head left next to the handlebars to the footroom while driving and I then give gas I hear a loud knatter noise like a broken exhaust seal. Today again in the Werstatt have changed under the AGR a small flexible tube was torn but the knatter / flaking is still to be heard. A master was so clever and has himself during the journey The master says he has never heard before then he has released two clamps from the air filter cover while driving I again gas when switching again Plöppp the lid flew away like at explosion. The master such an overpressure in the air filter is not normal which is blown really free when switching. I would be happy if someone could tell me if which is normal or not ! Mfg. J.H

  • Customer asks. Distance; 1.Taxi in queue?

    Hello, here’s a question as a customer. I drive relatively often with you in various cities, both shorter routes (8-15€ turnover) and medium (airport => hotel) routes. In conversations with the drivers I always get contradictory answers to the question, what worthwhile trips are. Some of my longer routes are not worthwhile, cost too much time, the others tell me exactly the opposite. Can you explain me there? If I need a taxi for a short distance, take I also like a taxi from the rear end of the line, mostly because I also come from the direction and I want to advance the not insignificant length of the queue with luggage. I also say to myself that the front has had to wait forever and can now not use a short distance. Well I often have quite contradictory discussions with the driver, from great … until then I get “struggles” from my colleagues. How is your opinion?

  • Questions about taxis from a customer’s perspective

    Hello, dear taxers! I always ride taxis, especially from different airports to the inner cities and from the Munich city center home to the bacon belt. So sometimes 50-100 km. I ask myself the following: – why are most taxis limousines and no combos? A station wagon would have to be much more practical and more attractive in resale. In addition, it is hardly possible to use a taxi with four luggage together. – what does a Mer cost? cedes E Taxi new? Is it cost-effective to use such a car instead of an e.g. VW Passat or Skoda Superb? My personal experience is that a Mercedes E S210 320 CDI can be a catastrophic money grab, while an S211 270 CDI can run cheaper than a VW Golf. What does this generally look like? – Why is Mercedes apparently preferred to the BMW 5er? – The taxi rides always cost the same, no matter which model is used. I personally reject it for reasons of industrial policy and prefer to get into a Mercedes further in the row than in a Renault or even Lada. I know at least 4 people who drive taxis more often and keep this consistently the same. Is it still worth using such vehicles as taxis? Why does the driver do this to drive with such a cookie can 100,000 km a year or more? Thanks already and many greetings! M.

  • f800r or 690smc – who was faced with a similar decision?

    Hello, has someone happened to drive both times for a slightly longer period of time (sample)? When choosing between one of the two mopeds I’m doing very hard at the moment. Background: Because of children and dogs longer tours are currently (and in the next years) not possible/wanted (foreseeable). Occasionally to work and otherwise an extra round (also for two), visit to the bakery or supermarket, children transport, … For this the KTM 690 SMC is very suitable. But: For approximately there The BMW (+ABS, +1cylinder more, +…) has the same amount of money. All in all, it seems like more motorbikes. A test drive with the BMW is still on, but after a lot of reading I don’t expect a fundamentally bad motorcycle. Driving with the KTM is fun – but every local entrance is connected to switches at the same time, even in the city the single cylinder is better to hold at speed. Well, who has an opinion, I would be interested. I also know that in the end I have the same But it’s nice that you could write about it. PS: Both can’t be done at the same time.

  • R75/6 bubbling/bubbling

    Hello Owns a bmw r75/6 from 1975 for half a year.The motorcycle was driven only for a short test while buying and actually ran well, except for a few moments where it no longer took gas. I only assumed carburettor settings. Over the winter I had time to see after the machine. Oil, filter, air filter, petrol valve incl. filter, gasoline lock and plugs incl. end cables were replaced. Test drive: the machine ran 2 km well, then bububly and bubly Yesterday I worked with the carburettors for 1 hour (poor neighbor). Unfortunately without success. Once it is normal until the 4th course, then it was over again. So slowly I wonder if it really is the carburettor, or if it is not a problem with the ending. How can I test the op the end coils are still good. And what function does this condenser have? Love is happy and thank you for helping Cliff

  • Battery or alternator defective?

    Hello Biker, I need your expertise. I have been driving a R80RT built in 1986 for 4 years. Now I have bought the second battery. (in March this year) and have the following effect: Since the installation it ran rgut and I drove about once a week and it jumped without any problems. The voltmeter showed a voltage of about 10 volts during the last ride. I did not really notice this. Now I wanted to drive away and the machine did not jump. shows before I pressed the starter also only 9 volts and it did not work or all the lights went out when I pressed the starter. Today I with the starter cable from my Aute moved the motorcycle to run self-employed but after I shut down the autobatterie again were only 10 volts on the voltmeter to see again and after I had turned off the motorcycle once it also did not jump on and the voltmeter shows just again 9 volts. probably at “Kriech” currents or maybe the alternator is no longer able to charge the battery? How can I determine the cause with little effort?

  • Sudden game in the clutch train

    Hello, I just drove up to the highway and spontaneously had huge play in the clutch train when switching. There is a metal sleeve where the train runs into the adjustment screws on the handlebar. This is now incredibly loose and comes out almost completely from the black screw. The handle also does not go back to the starting position and the grinding point of the clutch is felt a few millimeters before stop. I then next possibility down and saw if the Kupp I could not find anything at all when I checked my vision. I can only imagine that a part of the soul was torn, the wire rope swirled up a bit and became longer. Am I lying right or is there another possibility? LG

  • Brake cylinder rear BMW K100RS 1987 Excluding ABS

    Hello, A friend of mine has a BMW K100RS BJ Nov 87. It is I believe the 2v 90 hp version. Anyway, he has renewed the brake pads at the rear, and he is supp his brake cylinder out of the cuff. After some research I have read this should not be so rare, just when printing the piston back it happens that the Simmerring is leaking on the piston. however, a rep. set costs 65€ at Ebay and he has just thought a little price cheaper a used brake Yes, I know, some were, some didn’t. In any case, we find quite a lot with a 12 mm piston. However, in his a 13 mm brake cylinder should be installed. Can you take the 12 it, and to widen the search somewhat, which other models are identical and can be used. If any information is missing, please just write. Thanks and nice Sunday still

  • Triumph Explorer driving report

    Last Friday I had the pleasure to get to know the new Explorer. Long enough it had been presented in the engine press as one of several BMW GS competitors. So far I (bin Yamaha driver) always gave up a test drive a new purchase. Thus my 900er Diversion with me 14 years old – of course with a structure with no stone on the other. I tried beside different BMW GS models also the 1200er Yamaha Tenere and on the brand new Honda Crosstourer sat. When I saw the Explorer at Triumph in Düsseldorf, the love was at first sight. She looked (and looks) really like it is presented in the advertisement. A 100 km test drive in the city, on the highway and in the mountainous country convinced me now to become also triumphal driver – even if the ride was only a first impression. I signed a purchase contract for the first time directly after a test drive………. Ic h is currently working on a detailed report that -who wants – everyone can read in my blog. fredis-garage
