I contacted the seller and they have more of these locks available. If
anyone is interested in defraying shipping costs, let me know. The price
is $15.50 for each lock and $10.50 for shipping (up to three locks).
I'll be happy to front the money and then we can divide up the shipping.
If interested, just give me a shout at:
greg @ thisoldtractor.com
I'll be placing my order on Monday, so get in touch with me before then.

Ok Loopers, found an identical in every way replacement for the fork lock. The one from All Italia http://www.angelfire.com/biz/laverda/itcatalog/mainframe.htm(go to page 2 of Accessories) will work, but the end that engages with the steering stem is a little short. There is a guy in Germany selling some for $15.50 on eBay as BMW fork lock R25/3-69/S,/5/6. This lock is identical to both that I took out of my frames. Check this link for the auction I bought it on so you can see what it looks like and see if he has any more for those interested. <http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4518406157&rd =1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4518406157&rd= 1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT Maybe this can also be found from your local BMW dealer? All I can say is I bought it January 16th and got it today in the mail. Paul 73 Eldo "Elvira" 949 conversion 74 Eldo "Daisy" undergoing a full police restoration |
