I tried that and I could not remove either left or right spark plug wire from the coil. I can pull harder. But I don't want the pull off the soldered on end piece (u...

While searching internet for H4 LED bulbs most of the information was that the OEM housing was not designed to correctly focus the light emitted by the LED's. Then I found this product. sum-rp22677_ny_xl.jpg sum-rp22677_xl.jpg https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-rp22677?seid=srese1&gclid=CjwK...

Re: 1982 R100RT Final Drive Oil Leakage
How tough would it be to replace those two seals?
Would it require any special tools?

1982 BMW R100RT - Left Upper Fairing Not Attached to Front Support Bar
While installing the left handlebar controls, I noticed that the Upper Fairing is not attached to the Front Support Arm.

Or will I need to remove the front fairing for more access? Any sugestions on how to navigate the rat...
