NBT: BMW (lack of) Power

[v8-powered]

Well it's getting to that time of year and have a few bits to do on the old bus:

New OEM clutch slave, gasket and crush washers (precautionary, nothing wrong as far as I'm aware)
Jon Gemi chip
Fit Noco charger cable
Valve clearances
Throttle bodies balance
Fit new brake pads and fluid.

Biggest jobs will be fitting the chip and charger cable - have to pretty much strip the bikento gain access to the battery and ECU.

Appreciate most don't GAS about my old ditch pump but have done all of that above.

Really.has made a difference, mostly due I'm sure to the John Gemi chip - runs far far better, much more traceable with very little in the way of pops and bangs. Much smoother too.

Now to put some miles on it

And before anybody comments on the dates between posts - yes, it did take me that long!

They are, yes. Assume different on the Rockster? I never paid any attention when I owned one.....

My GS has been chipped and has a full Remus and K&N. A few people have been surprised by it.
