The footpeg block is in place. All looks ok. But they do dance around a little bit.

As per the title. While my 2006 RT is off the road awaiting a bevel box rebuild I've been looking at a few little tasks. One of which is wobbly panniers. They slot on and latch down fine but they wobble about a fair bit. Would it be a bad thing to wrap the posts in a bit of loom tape to take up some...

I'll let you know. He's pretty prompt at replying. Seems a decent sort so far.

Just for near completeness. £175 for the right sensor and I would still have to chop the end off and swap connectors. or £160 to get the seal done, £350 if every bearing is shot. I've sent the Gen1 bevel box back to the ebay chap (James Sherlock, can't recommend highly enough). and mine is off to Da...

Good find..and Ouch!! And it will need splicing.
I had a BMW K100 back in 1990. The final drive broke up. It was a between years one made of unobtanium.
I'm getting flashbacks!!!

Thats the one I have.

I'll try and find one of those then David. Thanks for all your help

Mine is definitely a hexhead, and the bevel box I have with the small hole also only has the one hole so it needs swinging. I'm going to have a random 1 off that I can't get parts for. I can feel it in my waters.

exactly that.
I can find plenty of the one I've already got and no info about the change. So frustrating. A 30 minute job is taking days. And the weather is nice.

Thanks David,
I don't suppose you know if a cam head speed sensor will work on a hex head do you?

I've sourced a second hand box of ebay, and fitted it.. The abs sensors are a different size. My original is a lot bigger than the hole I'm trying to put it in. Does anyone know A) Theres a difference in Size. i.e what does that tell me about the box. and B) what part am I now looking for to swap th...

Thanks. I've sent an email.

Hi All. I have an oil leak. I think it's on the splined part of the bevel box. It filled the swingarm and dribbled over my tyre. There is a cutaway that it leaked out off Is it possible to buy a refurbished bevel box. Or am I looking at a main deal. Will they even touch it now I've taken it off the ...

Why? I fancied a massive BMW. Big seat, big screen, comfy for a passenger. And didn't cripple me after 30 minutes. And it had to be a boxer because I've never owned that configuration. But it had to be cheap.....just in case. So I bought a 2006 40k mile silver thing with all the boxes. It replaced a...

Goxhill, South side.
