clutch switch

[gingerly]

Does anyone know if you can still get the clutch switch? The one that mounts on the L clutch handle. I need it and the wire if anyone knows a source, Mine is rather corroded after 32 years of riding and while replacing wiring would like to replace it also. Part # if known. Thanks!

They should be available. In order to help with the part number, we'll need to know year and model...

I bought one from Benchmark Works last year for my 82 R100. The shipping was almost more than the switch!

You can check OEM parts availability for your motorcycle yourself. Go to one of the BMW dealer websites such as A&S BMW Motorcycles or Max BMW Motorcycles that have an illustrated parts catalog online.

Pull the switch off, take a good look at it and go to Radioshack. You can likely find one that you can solder in place. If I remember this correctly, the one at RS will have three blades instead of two and you have to experiment ot figure out which two to use. The switch runs anout $3 so it's worth a shot.

You can get EVERY important part for your bike from BMW.
