  1. Today
  2. It's a nice watch in impeccable condition, and I'd love to help you out of your financial woes, but I'll have to decline as I wouldn't want to devalue my collection by adding a lowly Tag watch to the pile of good stuff. Just fucking with you, clearly. Every once in a while I feel like getting a nice watch, but I feel that I'd need to get a fairly worn one from a brand like Rolex or Petek. Something I could occasionally enjoy that would hold value even if I put some wear marks on it. Unfortunately, that probably means paying a lot more for a much more worn piece than this.
  3. His driveshaft is cupped....or just out of time, which will make it become cupped.
  4. Was in the area and scouted it for a friend
  5. Yesterday
  6. Thanks man. I only wore it 2 or 3 times and it’s time to go to someone who will wear it. It got comments each time. Always the pop of color.
  7. That's a good looking watch. Love the orange face.

  9. Or…$1,325.25 off what I paid. Purchased from TAG Direct. All papers, cards included. This will cost me $100 just to ship. Watch is new. Leather travel case included.
  10. I'ma buy one of those for my friend.
  11. So why didn't you buy it? It looks like a good one.
  12. That's sharp! Like to see it without all the bags.
  13. I guess I should have marked this gone, there were no takers and I did a massive cleaning and dumped them.
  14. https://www.facebook.com/share/1XTdUzgrFfyHvNjn/?mibextid=79PoIi checked it out over the weekend. Pretty clean. A couple small marks helibars, longer cables, heater grips, 2bros pipes, zero gravity screen, power commander, vortex sprocket, chain and tires new manual and tool kit still in place
  15. Still have the promax case? i could use it 👍
  16. And, in case you wonder how common an issue this is….
  17. The driveshaft has non-serviceable u-joints. I suppose if they were serviceable, they'd be substantially larger. It's not hard to check the joints on the bike. Place on center stand, rock wheel back and forth and see if you hear any clicking. Spin wheel and ensure it's quiet. Dismantling and visual inspection shouldn't be necessary, but since you are supposed to replace the rear drive oil every other year, might as well do a visual inspection since you've already done the first step. While riding, a tapping noise from the rear wheel is about all the warning you get. If you're lucky, you're close to home or a BMW shop before it fails. Failure can tear up the driveshaft housing...making an even more expensive repair than just replacing the driveshaft.
  18. Is the issue that the U joint wears out or something else? My Motoguzzi had an 'unserviceable' u joint; the suggestion was to heat it up and soak it in a tub of gear oil to lube it. They said that if you put your foot on the housing where the joint is while riding you could feel it if it was starting to go bad, otherwise you'd likely not notice 'till it was too late. Like many other parts, a properly maintained U-joint will last an eternity, once the lube is compromised the lifespan can become minutes.
  19. Sometimes it's good to be in the group of one. 😉
  20. Last week
  21. Ahahahaha, EVERYTHING is a contentious issue amongst BMW owners. I gave up on the local group when they argued about the muffin quality at different coffee shop meetups. Like gun owners, there are groups I am part of that I hate to be part of because of the other members of the group.
  22. Snark aside, it has been a contentious issue among BMW owners as to why such a critical component is more user serviceable or at least durable.
