New Bosch Coils For 1970 Through 1980 Models : /5 , /6 , and /7, R90S $70 pair, 6 volt $85 pair

These are the high-energy Bosch coils known for years as " Blue Coils" because of their distinctive color. Now, they're just natural aluminum but still the great replacement coil for tired, aging original coils that don't develop the full spark energy they might have had 30 or more years ago. Very often, installing a new set of these coils will restore easy starting, smooth running, and greater economy than was normal with the original coils . These coils are 6 volt, wired in series, just like the original design specification, and they will fit directly into the original coil clamps. These are the newest production from Bosch's new factory in Brazil. Beware of "Blue Coils" that show up on the 'net at a remarkably low price! There are several knock-offs out there, clever copies visually but invariably of poor quality

 

Points Plate for /2 Boxers $95.00

Uses readily available and inexpensive General Motors points and condensor. This allows not only great economy but ease of maintenance as well. Ignition timing can be set via turning a single Allen Screw - Voila. Simple.

 

 

Dyna III Electronic Ignition for 70-78 Boxers $175.00

Another well known product that has been making boxer owners lives easier for many years. Works with the original coils and spark advancer. Easier starting and smoother running can be expected with little need for maintenance 5 years manufacturers warrenty.

 

 

Remanufactured Hall Sender Unit $175.00

1981 -95 models with factory electronic ignition. The factory does not provide individual repair parts for the ignition trigger, only complete assemblies - and they are not cheap. Done on an exchange basis , each unit is completely disassembled for thorough cleaning and lubrication of the spark advancer. Electrical components are replaced with new and the finished assembly is tested. Your part sent in will be repaired and the same one will be returned to you. Turnaround time for this repair process is usually 7 - 10 days after we receive it here. DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS YOURSELF IF YOU WANT THE BEST REPAIR POSSIBLE ! "

/2 Plug Wires $40 Pair (55' - '69 Boxers only)

Spark Plug Wires are frequently overlooked as a cause of hard starting or poor performance. Bad spark plug wires can damage magneto coils on vintage BMWs as well. These wires are correct in appearance and in function and have 0 ohms resistance to keep the mag coil cool.

 

 

Plug Wires

All wires come with 5k ohm NGK caps (as shown). Fit Airheads only.

 

 

NGK Spark Plugs

Bosch plugs are no more. Happily NGK fills the gap with the proper plugs to keep your Airhead, F650 and K-Bike motoring along. NGK spark plugs are made to the same level of quality, and incorporate all the same important design features of the original Bosch part.

 

 

Ignition Control Unit for Boxer $60.00

Oh, and more thing: they cost over a hundred dollars LESS than the originals! Take the money you save and ride a few more miles :)

 

 

Bosch Starter Renewal $75 plus shipping and handling

Starters are robust, but over time, the shaft bushings usually develop enough wear to cause internal drag or interference when it tries to turn . This requires too much current from the battery , and frequently there won't be enough left for the ignition system to work . Hard starting can frequently be directly attributed to excessive starter current draw . Starter service includes armature shaft and drive gear bushing replacement, commutator cleaning and truing, brush inspection, and overall cleaning and lubrication. If more serious problems are found, an exact quote will be provided before proceeding.

 

New Magneto Coil '55-'69 Airheads R51/3 through /2 Twins $160.00

Great replacement for the ever-aging and failure - prone original magneto coils. Almost all of the original coils are now failing routinely. A sure indication of this progressive failure is hard starting when hot. As it gets worse, there may soon be misfiring at high speeds as well. These coils are of modern, improved design and manufacture for a perfect fit and restored reliability. Made with an external ground wire connection for increased reliability , and the high-tech resins and plastics used in their construction means they should help keep your bike around for the next 50 years. Make it right with a new condensor, $8.

(It is strongly recommended that the condensor should be replaced whenever a new coil is fitted . Old, failing condensors can cause serious coil problems on even a new part . These new ones come with the wire made on, so there's no tedious soldering like the originals.)

Condensors

Original BMW parts for long life.
