Rubber sensors?
The fuel pump on my 94 K1100LT nearly died. Got a new one a Napa, but not exact. Shorter. Meant that the "indicator light" was too late. So, I learned the mileage on that one too. Also learned to "lean to the left" for the pickup to get whatever fuel was left... It had the metal plunger for fuel level...
Meanwhile, my 06 K12GT has no issues with the sender, my indicators seem to work fine... (Now where is that wood to knock on?)

IMHO, there is a design flaw. BMW may own up one day, but I wouldn't count on it.

ARRG! MY '51 Piper Cub had a brass rod that protruded from the top of the tank to indicate the level of fuel.
