Following on from the "do you do your own servicing" thread, I'm currently waiting for the oil to drain from my bike. While I'm waiting I thought I'd ask a favour:
Does anyone have a GS-911, who's not a million miles away from me, and would be willing to let me borrow it for a weekend? I'd really appreciate it! Or indeed, does anyone know a trick for resetting the Service Indicator? The old paper-clip trick doesn't work on bikes.
I'm going to have to ignore the nag indicator for now. I'm saving up to get my own GS-911 but it'll take a while; they're about £300!
But at least I'll have it for future use. I know the BMW bikes use the K-line protocol for reading DTCs off the OBD but they also use an extended code set that they obviously don't publish. I discovered that my bike has zero DTCs :woohoo: by jumping connections from a £50 iphone OBD adpator to the OBD connector under the seat.

If I could just get hold of the codes
Anyhoo, a loaner would be very much appreciated, hell, you could just plug it in and do the deed while-u-wait (I understand someone not wanting to leave it). They'd be a cup of tea and a biscuit or two in it for you
