A bozo on the bus
This is a simple poll to try to gather some info on what the failure rate of fuel-strips for various year bikes was.
Since this will include some years where BMW used both strips and a float assembly, I'll try to take that into account. If you've had multiple fuel strips - please note that in a comment.
* I'm making this an open poll, so usernames will be visible (if you care) for the poll results.
* I'm also allowing more than one selection since some members may have more than one bike in the years covered.
Right at the beginning - I'll sticky it so it stays up top. Once it has served it's purpose it will be un-stickied.
UPDATE: I accidently forgot that the 2012 R1200R still was delivered with a fuel strip. If you have had a failure - please log it under the 2011 model, and make a note in a posting. I'd edit the poll, but I think that clears it of all results..
UPDATE #2: This seems to have not been clear enough, so in case anyone actually reads this before voting:
THIS POLL ALLOWS MULTIPLE CHOICES:
Thanks for voting, the results are interesting (but not scientifically conclusive by any means) so far.

THIS POLL ALLOWS MULTIPLE CHOICES:
- Example: If you have a 2007 R1200xyz and a 2008 R1200xyz - and both had failed fuel strips - you should check both off.
- Example: If your 2007 R1200xyz had more than one failed fuel strip - you could check off the option for multiple failures. That selection should only be clicked on IF you had multiple failures on ONE bike.
- Example: If you also own say a 2009 R1200xyz and haven't had a fuel strip fail - you can check that off also (and please note this, with year/model in a comment/posting after voting.)
Thanks for voting, the results are interesting (but not scientifically conclusive by any means) so far.
