Lima, Peru
Myself and a Swiss guy both used a Honda place for basic stuff in Lima.
Desert Sport Racing Colina 480 Lima 18 - Peru Tel.241 0484 445 0462 ( Near Miraflores ) If you cant speak much Spanish, the owner of the bike shop next door will help.The shop stocks Pirelli MT 70's and 21's etc... Ask for Tato, the quite capable machanic who does all the servicing for the local bike touring company Inca Tours. |

Incredible timing on your post!
I find myself 20 miles from Lima, and logged on to see if I could find some addresses of places to buy tires in Lima. Thanks!! |

BMW Dealership
there's a BMW car dealer in Lima, in theory they have the diagnostic computer and software for the newer BMW's, and because they are a dealer, they can order parts from Germany (probably 2 week timeframe). I don't think they know how to do diagnostics on a bike.
Inchcape Motors Peru Republica de Panama 3330 San Isidro Peru 12° 5'46.66"S 77° 1'16.09"W Inchcape Motors Peru S.A. for English, talk to: Luis Miguel Pollarolo lpollarolo *AAT* imp *DOT* com *DOT pe 222-2434 They don't really have MC mechanics. Luis did say there are more and more BMW bikes showing up needing service, and they are thinking of gearing up for it, so if more people stop by while in the neighborhood to "ask" about service (then go to another place), maybe they will get serious, find a mechanic who can do the diagnostics, and maybe actually handle repairs.

Carlos knows fuel injection
Carlos works on all kinds of bikes, seems to know what he's doing. A bit hard to find - just a small front on a side street, hardly any signage (Honda I think - look for bikes parked in front).

Lima
I guess there is no BMW dealer in Lima, then, or a guy who regularly works on F650´s. Any source for BMW parts.

Lima Repairs
Many people recommended Tatum Racing in Miraflores but he also has a reputation for being very expensive. I went to a guy in the Surco area of Lima called Bruno through the Lima Moto Club and got pretty good service.
