Hi all
I live in suderland N.E. England and have bought my first BMW k100 rt after passing my full bike test.
But after two fantastic weeks of riding the bike broke down on the way to work.
after getting the bike back home i got my chief mechanic "16 year old son (very enthusiastic)" to have a look at it after being told that the engine was dead.
The bike would not start and there was a loud screetching sound came from the front of the engine.
after taking the front part of the water pump off the bike started without the large screach.
So i have ordered a full manual and i am embarking on a waterpump refurb this comming week.
Any help on this subject would be greatly received.
Dave
