    GS100A brake light modulator

    We were on our way in a group a couple of years back and the cops who pulled us over for one of the guys having an orange headlight was impressed when the guy showed him that the lens can be removed. The cop's issue was with the safety at night with the orange cover (also the law's reason) But...

    Help; is there a cheaper generic clutch switch

    I fixed my previous 1200's indicator switch this way It is not the same, but still I had an issue with my GSA where the switch on the front brake went this way I bypassed it, but the ECU was unhappy with realizing I was breaking, but that switch didn't register (it would then switch off the...

    BMW GS1200 Mileage

    Visor, googles and glasses de-mister

    My mother always used a technique on the bathroom mirrors that worked She would use an old school green 'Sunlight Soap' bar (dry) and then draw a couple of squiggly lines on the glass and then polish it out Dunno if that will work with visors
