Thanks for the reply Kurt. Sorry for delay, out of town.

Bike is a '67 R60, so just magneto, your answer was confirmation of what I was thinking.

Is there a need to buy a 6V battery with say 14 amp/hour capability as opposed to one with say 4 amp/hr?

MaxBMW still lists them in +2 and +4 sizes. Thanks, I like that Swiss site. Sorry , I was looking at your answer and thought you had given me https://www.bmwbike.com/index.php then I got back and found you mentioning Max BMW. Guess it depends on how much stock each place actually has. When I querie...

1981 R80 G/S Tried to buy a replacement exhaust valve seat. No longer being produced by BMW, I was told. No longer in stock at Moto-Bins. (they still stock the 1000cc ones) Luckily , my non official shop had one left in his stock, so I am going to be OK How have people dealt with this recently? Know...
