Hi, I've just been across Canada, from Vancouver. The bike started idling really roughly through the prairies. In Winnipeg I went to the BMW dealership, the mechanic there said that there is an air leak at the manifold, that the rubber seal is worn out. He told me I could ride it like this to Montreal without damaging the engine.
I arrived in Ottawa yesterday and the idling is worse and worse, the bike sounds terrible. I am planning to get to Montreal today or tomorrow and I need to take the bike to a shop.
Anyone knows a shoppe or a mechanic that could help me with that issue in Montreal or surrounding areas?
I also have front end issues that have been getting progressively worse. I had the steering head bearing replaced, but still had some wobble and that wobble is getting worse. Everyone who checked my front end, forks say it's all good.
I still need to ride to Nashville, then California from Montreal, I need to get my bike repaired!
any help is appreciated
