dave sawyer Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Felt something different on the ride today. Investigation revealed the front shock mount (bottom) broken at the telelever. Bike has 122K w/Ohlins installed. Any suggestions on who/how to repair. Constructive comments welcome. Thanks, Dave Link to comment

dave sawyer Posted November 23, 2007 Author Share Posted November 23, 2007 P.S. Took the telelever up to the local precion welder and had him Mig weld the lower shock bracket back on. Stronger than the piss poor spot welding job BMW did at the factory. Back on the road. If you hear a clunking sound coming from the front of your hi-milage RT, check the lower shock mount. Thanks all, Dave Link to comment
