I have one, just make sure the part # from a '79 R65 is the same as what you are looking for.

Oh wait - I don't have the reflectors.

New reflectors are available from the dealer at a reasonable price.

I went to Irv Seaver's in Orange, Calif and they bought them from BMW. That is, they were in the book and available.

Just to add confusion: reflectors are something that often varies from country to country.

Why don't I buy it for you (I'm in Canada) and then ship it to you? Just another option to consider.

I may have just the bracket powder coated in black. If you are interested, email me through the forum and i'll dig for it. I'm in California but don't mind shipping to you.
