CB500/550 / Re: Rev counter blank

Couldn't you cut a piece of 6mm alloy to shape, drill for the screw,

Make a gasket, and fit??

Or you could buy a sheet of carbon fibre, the sort that is used for models,

CB350/400 / Reaching tail light wires
« Last post by Athame57 on Today at 02:34:49 PM »
Could it be my wires are too short or something? I had to bend the tang on my new tail light assembly to finally have the associated wire go on and the two other wires nearly had me burst a blood vessel.  >:( Honestly though when you have COPD it is things like this that make it show in the end. Is it easier to start undoing other things first. Any ideas?  ;)

Sorry if my post was ambiguous I did not mean to imply it was currently listed - in a way a good thing that he has offered it here first if that is the case.

Other Bikes / Re: BMW R80
« Last post by flatfour on Today at 11:33:56 AM »
I've owned BMW airheads on and off since the 1970's when I had one of the last R90S's into the UK.

I think that Matt Hull (Classic Bike Guide) did say that the bottom - end problems on his bike came through low oil level. Most of the older boxer engines had a real thirst for oil and on touring trips with other owners, often at the end of a long day's ride on the continent, we would buy a gallon of 20/50 and share it between three or four bikes. There was never any left in the container!

My understanding is that both the gearbox and shaft drive is difficult to self - service though there are a few well - known businesses that offer overhaul if needed.

Perhaps it might be worth joining the BMW Club, which has lots of information available, as well as a tool hire service for DIY work that includes nearly all of the special tools ever offered by BMW?
