......Hey Mac, In other news : it's still to cold and wet to ride the bike. Next week it looks good to go.

Happy for you. Forecast here is for rain all week. I know the bike doesn't care, but unless I am making a cross country run, I hate the effort it takes to put on all the waterproof gear almost as much as I hate being cold and wet.

Pirbear, Did the clutch get covered by warranty?

Sometimes they go at 20k, and sometimes 100K. Doubt the extra horses did it.

Bartender, I'll have what he's having.

BMW did cover it thankfully. They said that the clutch pedal pin broke which caused the clutch assemply to burn out and it melted the slave cylinder. I'm not sure how that happened but I didn't have to haggle with them or anything. They just ordered a new one and installed it. Not a penny paid out of pocket. I have only good experiences with teh BMW dealer in Fairfax, VA.
