Instrument cluster hex nuts
The 16mm tach and 18mm speedo hex nuts - are they intended to be placed on the instrument stems before attaching the respective cables, then wound down against the top of the cable's threaded attachments to keep them from unwinding? May also prevent water ingress? I see no function for them if wound up against the bottom of the instruments.

Ian Falloon's book R90S
Interested in obtaining or at least reading this book but its proven very hard to find. Suggestions appreciated.

Sri,
I have an original R90/6 seat pan in very good condition and the original factory molded foam rubber that's in useable condition.
If you're interested feel free to contact me offline at oldbmws@...

I'm going to go with the option that will allow me to ride soon. My mechanic is also a welder and he's going to make the existing seat pan work maybe for another 5 years! Thank you all for your input. Much appreciated.

Would anyone know if the Corbin seat pan for the R90S will work with the foam made for the stock seat? I've got an old Corbin seat that I'm hoping will work. It is made of some kind of hard plastic.

Thanks Bob. It would have worked just fine if they would ship to Canada. Probably why I didn't see it when I checked ebay. It definitely is in better shape than mine.

I believe you can buy a poly-somethingorother seat pan which will never rust out.
Contact Sargent in Florida and see what they tell you about your dilemma.? I've had them re-foam and cover my seats twice with great results.
Good luck.

Re: More re My Home Made Bag Bracket, Showing Threaded End
I made mine out of a bit of steel rod. ?Much easier to bend and just filed the ends square.?
