Vintage BMW Motorcycle Owners

Thanks. My manual is from 2000. I was looking at the exploded view of the carbs. But I did find the "lever top kit" info on page 18 of my manual.

Ace Hardware sells a grommet kit for under $20. I searched General Tools Multi-Grommet Kit 81264.

I looked at the Bing manual for Type 120 carbs. They don't show a part like this. Is it something new?

Probably going to be around 800cc. I seem to recall that I needed to buy two bottles because they were 750cc each.

Since the /2 doesn't have stock ports for the devices suggested previously, you'll have to go old school. And it should work for the /5. Plug shorting is where you put together an extension that screws into the top of the plug and into the end of the high tension lead. You use a long handle screwdri...

For what model bike? Plug shorting can be an acceptable approach with good results.

Very nice! Kudos on the troubleshooting steps. Weird that something like this just happens on its own.

Snowbum has a lengthy discussion of troubleshooting the alternator:

Do you mean #10 in this diagram?

According to the listing, this particular lever was used on all /5 and /6 bikes.

The gas cap is a lot like the one on my /7. The tank of course is not, but could be a special tank like for police or something.
