SWEDEN GOTHENBURG DAY 47 to 50

 TUESDAY  DAY 48
Olle has a nice workshop and knows bikes and has all the tools, so he confirmed with his multimeter that it was the stator that was not charging and needed to be replaced.


Found a used one for €190 which was better than the OEM one at €1000 so we rode about 80km north on the backroads to go pick it up, I used his Trans Alp and he has a Triumph Tiger.




Got back and prepared for his birthday party and had a great meal with friends and family.



WEDNESDAY    DAY 48
After a healthy yogurt and mueslie breakfast I removed the stator and made a gasket as BMW didn't have any and it was lot easier to make than I imagined when you have the right tools. Put the new stator in and it all works and no oil leaks.



THURSDAY    DAY 49    231km.

Went for a ride on the backroads to the coast to Tjorn Island and had some fish and chips and then rode and back got back after five, the last ride in my BMW suit. 

Had a lovely Salmon dinner and then some friends came buy for coffee and chatted till late and I have to be up at 3:30 am for my 6am flight to the USA. 

    Helmet visor and peak broke.
