150 miles from home on my bike and the day turned into a complete rain out. Tried to simply ride home through it and my bike simply quit running after about an hour.

Pretty ticked off though as BMW is suppose to be the “all weather” bike of bikes. Still under the factory warranty, so we’ll see how BMW treats their customers.
