Fatjack, are you looking for a used (not recommended!) or new? This should be a stocked part at a BMW shop - if you can't get it locally, what about getting one shipped UPS from a larger dealer like San Hose BMW? There are mail order dealers in the UK, but I would be surprised if you couldn't get one from somewhere close to where you are....
More info please....

yes it should be an in stock part but there are none in the country (us) and one on back order. there are some in germany but there dosnt seem to be a very fast way to get one here. the guy that has the bike in his repair shop goes on two week vacation in a few days. i have checked all over the country for a good used one but cant find anything.

Hey Jack,
In Montana try Bob'd Motorwerks, Bob Clement, Roberts Mt. tel no. 406 445 2044. He will fix your rear drive or know what to do. He is the best Airhead mechanic I know.
You could also go on line to thru the Airheads club site to the Airlist for help. Instructions for doing so are posted on their website. No dougt a lister has the parts you need. Bill

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
