I seem to have eventually found my way here, which I think is the right department for my questions....
I have somewhat recently purchased a 1935 R4 (my first BMW) and wish to figure out what series it is so I can start to track down some of the missing parts.
It is mostly "all there", - missing clutch cable, wiring harness, handlebar switch, some rubber pieces, cover for the driveshaft U joint (cardan shaft?). I have so far discovered Oldtimers garage and old Militaria for parts. Can members suggest other commercial vendors for parts? There seems to be little to nothing on eBay.
Do folks know if the clutch cable can be purchased as "built and correct" or does one fab up their own using universal parts?
There is a start, thanks!
