The ride was something I had been looking forward to and preparing for a long time, and this sudden setback was indeed a shock.<\/h2>\n

BHPian praruaaa4<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

As I was preparing for an extreme ride that would cover 7000 kilometers, a mix of both perfect asphalt and extreme off-road terrains, the anticipation was high, but little did I know that a surprise was waiting for me.<\/p>\n

The Unexpected Hurdle<\/h2>\n

Just when I was gearing up for the ride, I encountered an unexpected hurdle. The front ESA strut (Telelever front suspension) of my bike developed a leak. With only 20 days left for the trip, procuring the part on time turned into a stressful race against the clock. The ride was something I had been looking forward to and preparing for a long time, and this sudden setback was indeed a shock.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fortunately, the required part was already in transit from BMW Germany. A rush order was created to expedite the process. The wait was nerve-wracking, but luck was on my side. The part arrived exactly 6 days before the start of the trip.<\/p>\n

The Relief<\/h2>\n

The new part was promptly installed, replacing the faulty one. Thanks to the extended warranty from BMW, the replacement was covered under warranty. It felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders.<\/p>\n

With the major issue resolved, I decided to go a step further to ensure my bike was in perfect condition for the tough journey ahead. I opted for a full annual service for my bike. The service cost me Rs. 17184\/-, which included an oil change and air filter replacement.<\/p>\n

Ready to Roll<\/h2>\n

With all hurdles crossed and my bike in top-notch condition, I am now all set for the ride. It\u2019s going to be challenging, but with my trusty bike by my side, I\u2019m ready to conquer both perfect asphalt and extreme off-road terrains covering 11 States, 1 Union Territory and 1 country (Nepal). I will write a separate post regarding the trip.<\/p>\n
