Any of you folks who do your own maintenance? I had my R1250 R 12,000 mile service about 500 miles back (at 13,000 miles now). Do techs have to remove this left side plastic panel for anything during that service? I ask because I was cleaning the bike today and notices this crack in the plastic. I have never dropped this bike, so not clear how this crack could have occured if not by having the plastic removed and reinstalled.
And if still under warranty, do you know if BMW would replace this given there is no obvious drop damage?
