BMW service question
Hi,
I'm just finishing up with Africa now and think it's about time for the bike to get a good 'end-of-Africa' service. Does anyone have experience with a dealer in Morocco or Spain that actually loves bikes and can do a great job on them- especially ones that have had a hard life?
The bike has a couple of rattles and such, but nothing that seems too serious (yeah, I know- one of those rattles is just waiting to turn into a CRUNCH!), but I'd really like to get everything 100% before I figure out where I'm going next. I got completely spoiled by my experience at the BMW dealership in George, South Africa and want it again!
Thanks!

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
