I bought this last month and rode it to the BMW 100 Years celebration at Laguna Seca. This past weekend I ran out of gas with 85 miles still indicated before empty. I heard of this problem; do I was not surprised. What did surprise me was my response from Garcia Moto in Raleigh, NC
Jerry,
Jon Ross with the Garcia Moto Service Department here.
Sounds like you have the prototypical Fuel Level Sending Unit malfunction.
BMW has extended the warranty on that component to 12 years from the original date of sale, so I'm sure we can take care of that issue free of charge.
The BMW mainframe has no open service campaigns on the VIN you supplied, so it should be a quick in and out visit.
We are currently scheduling appointments for Wednesday afternoon the 28th and later dates.
Do you have a day & time in mind for next week that might work for you?
Let me know what would work best and I'll check our service schedule.
We expect to need the motorcycle for approximately 90 minutes to complete the repair.
Sincerely,
Jon Ross
