I think it has a Cob LED bulb in the head light and a tail light like this one >>> https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/132443865497?hash=item1ed6450199:g:LwIAAOSw-09aPjWN

I think all the horror stories you read are owners that don't know how to set up the electrics or are being sold modern parts. If you keep the electrics simple then, it is easy to understand and repair.

Is it a modern BMW as, a lot of modern cars and bikes need to be re-programed for a new battery. And on the new Range Rovers, you can not even change the brake pads without having it connected to a dealer program  :o

Sesman:
Nah. 1200LC. I Just swapped it over, turned it on/off a couple of times and it was away. Interesting about the programming, though..

Morning Graham et al,

wher did you get the reg plate holders that you two have on your bikes that fixes on the rear spindle bolt? I've looked everywhere and can't find one that looks any good and then saw yours. Thy're just the job.
