BMW R100GSPD parts/service in WA
Does anyone have any good contacts for parts and service ie: driveshafts/transmission parts etc for 89 R100GSPD
preferably in Western Australia, but Australia in general would be fine
Thanks, Scott

Have a look in http://www.yellowpages.com.au for your nearest BMW dealer. BMW have always been good at supplying any parts that I've ever needed, they might have to come from Melbourne to WA.

And Munich MC's are cheaper too. Friendly bunch. They'll forward the ordered parts anywhere to in Oz in no time.

Definately use Munich Motors for parts but unfortunately they don't do any serviceing any more. Apart from the BMW agents, there may be others who will help. I'd suggest contacting the BMW club for info.
By the way, they can repair and modify with grease nipples your driveshaft.

Hi Ivan, thanks for the tip. Gave you a bum steer on the PD. I only bought the bike 2 weeks ago, misunderstood the guy selling it, he said it's not the PD. Oh well. Bought it anyway, it's great. It is a 1989 model
