Re: Idle loping 2004 rockster in colorado

Copy that Tower worker, I will switch the coils and see what happens
It is a 2004 and is probably a good idea to renew them.
I will phone the nearest dealer and see to it
Thanks

high beam headlight lens cracked

Returned from a two day ride, cleaning off bugs and the high beam glass lens is cracked (no other damage). Bummer :(
I am new at this but it looks like $202 replacement or can one buy the glass only :?
Can anyone give advice on changing out the high beam?
Thanks in advance :)

Re: All known Edition 80 owners

I have an 80 ed alpine white #70/2003 first registered in 2004 (found it in Florida). My bike is now in Canada.
It is a great touring mount with the stock " BMW touring screen"
