2002 1150GSA speedo bulbs

[Rugged Path]

I went to the Chester dealer to get new speedo instrument bulbs which have blown but, he could not find them on the microfiche.
They are the capless type.
Anybody know the number / type so I can buy from Motorworks?

Or, are there LED available to fit and from where?

Thanks,

Those are 74 also called T5. Get white LEDs, not amber ones. Plenty on eBay for dirt cheap.

How-to and comparaison between white and amber LEDs : http://www.i-bmw.com/showpost.php?p=616277&postcount=196

BTW That was two years ago. I have just ordered more powefull leds and will soon report.

Lee, Five dollars plus free shipping from China, holy cheap prices.

No wonder the west is disintegrating. But, a brightness of 6000K, would that not wash out the dial?

6000K stands for 6000° Kelvin. It is not a measure of power (watt) or brightness (Lumens), it describes the "colour" of the light emitted. 6000°K is "icy white". Not yet blue. Most LEDs are around 6000°K

Also be aware that not all LEDs emit light in the same pattern. SOme are 360°, some are 180°, and some kinda only "shoot" light to the front.

Lee,
So the link you highlighted for a bagful of 74 T5 LED's at $5 are suitable?

While I am here, what about the rear stop/brake light and indicator replacements?

When I order, might as well go the whole way and buy the lot if available.

Thanks

I have a BMW K1200RS, an R1150GSA and a Honda Africa Twin. They all have Led bulbs. I honestly don't remember which type goes where. Simply pull one a look on led supplier websites.
