Vintage BMW Motorcycle Owners

Installed engine
Thanks from Antero and Jim for my missing parts

+1 for repairing pot metal carburettors. If the repair fails, you may stop.
For clutch/brake lever parches.....if the repair fails, you may not stop.
I would not do it, my ass not worth the risk.
Cheers,
Hugh

You should be able to tap into the 2 wires going to your left/right bar end lights in the headlight bucket You more than likely will find the flash rate will be slower If you don't like the new flash rate then led bulbs in the rear should keep the flash rate about the same Always keep us posted Tomm...

Yes I am
It is only phase 1
Phase 2 is to test drive it

Make sure you have some freeplay on your clutch cable
Is it idling to fast when warm ?

I may just have to take my car for the day

Owner took it apart to restore some day
