The poll ask if you are currently experiencing coolant issues. I like most posters had issue last year but none since. What is making you wonder?

^^^^ Exactly

The point is that there were issues but the MoCo has solved those issues.

The poll and the comments seem to support that.

I should have made it a public poll. I wonder about the single YES vote with no comment with details explaining why he/she is still having leaking issues when most had them solved.

My mistake, i read the subject line as the question
"Are the Twin-Cooled leak issues History?" with everyone answering NO! yet the reply's all say they are not having an issue.

Sorry! More Coffee Please

8k plus miles and no problems. Delivered in March, don't know if issues were addressed before delivery or was shipped good from factory.

I see from your signature that you have a 1962 BMW R60. Got any photos? LOVE those old Beemers.
