Just down-loaded the MOA APP and MOA Anonymous e-book. Looks like this will be a great app to have. René and I have finally sorted out the battery and lighting issues on his GS700. Just waiting on a turn signal mount that was broken. Then we can put all the plastic back on and be ready to ride. Learned a lot about how to check the wiring with a volt meter. Found that this may have been a self-inflicted wound. Still looks like I may have a slow gas leak on my R1200R. Will need to ride some to lighten gas tank, then remove it. Had previously replaced an O-ring in gas line. Leak started after dealer replaced the fuel gauge sending unit—2X! Hopefully an O-ring will be all I’ll need. If I get leak fixed I’ll still have to re-tape all the soaked cloth line wraps. A real pain because of the close clearances. Also, the gas has stained the cylinder head and throttle body. I’ve heard Dawn detergent can help remove the stains. If anyone knows what else might work, let me know your ideas. Ride safe, Tschuss!
What year is your 1200R? They’re on the recall list for 2011-2014 for a fuel pump leak.
