in peru broken suspension!!!
 

i´m in northern peru, mancora.

can anyone give me some advice? i ride a bmw 1100gs and i don´t believe bmw is in peru. does anyone know a good mechanic in these parts?

Nevadadirt,

I am from Peru but I live now in Miami, I have friends who ride but in Lima, not sure if you are going south, I could get the contact info for their mechanics. I know you are about 12 hours from LIma, but not sure which way you are riding.

Let me know, and I will call my friends there.

Good luck,

Hi ND

There's a community in Chiclayo which can very probably help you.

From Mancora you,re closer to the Bmw dealer in Quito and they actually do bikes there,though only the newer models,might be worth a shot though.

There's also a BMW dealer in Guayaquil as well, across from the airport - affiliated with the dealer in Quito (they share the same diagnostics computer, ship parts back and forth, etc.) although you don't really need a BMW dealer, just a shop that can deal with your suspension. Buying a new shock is a simple thing to install, any decent mc mechanic could handle the installation.

Some info which you might find useful
