Hi guys,
Work colleague got his hands on a box of odd BMW spares, ranging from 1970's upto what looked like R1100 handlebar controls.
So he let me scratch around and take some stuff. In the box I found a voltage regultor. It's black and red and the casing is plastic (will try and post pic later). Anybody familiar with this part? Can I fit it / or is it worth fitting to my airhead?
The other thing is my swingarm bearings. I think the previous owner put different bearings in. It's got FAG 580619 (dont think that is original, is it?) sealed taper roller bearings in. I want to replace it, but that specific bearing does not seem to be available in South Africa according to the FAG suppliers. I'm no genius on bearing sizes, what other bearings will be ok?
This is for a 81 g/s.
Thanks,
