    Hi,

    Just curious as to how new 2014 RT owners are being treated by BMW here? On other forums, there seems to be a variety of responses from BMW, not to everyone's liking either.

    QDM.

    What is the recall for? Having had a BMW, it seems to me they only do a recall if it's cheap to fix.

    Can't imagine that there are that many in the country tbh...... As an ex multiple RT owner over many years I'd be afraid to buy one tbh...... Looking at going back to Japanese. ..

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    I'd have zero confidence in the bike trade here to look after the owners in a situation like this. The car trade is just as bad.

    Toyota UK website has a recall section where you can put in your reg or VIN to see if it's been subject to one of the many recalls.

    Toyota Ireland website - nothing - recalls don't exist.

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.
