Cylinder head studs
Whilst torquing the cylinder head studs on our two R80GSs at Mr. Yut's in Bangkok, both bikes suffered a stripped thread. Andreas also had the same problem in Iran on his R80GS.
Seems to be quite common as there is an oil feed within the actual thread where the upper exhaust side stud locates
More of the legendary BMW reliability or are we missing something?
