Re: R100RS 4-way hazard flashers.
Beware... if you do this, you need to have a flasher relay that will support 4 x 21w bulbs. Most modern flashers will but many older ones (including those fitted as stock to BMW airheads) won't. FWIW, I came up with a design for hazard flashers that had the following features: 1) Will work with any...

Re: sidestand
I think it works fine, as in easy to use, but the bike leans too far over. my experience in using a block of wood or something under it is that it leads to less "startsmoke".

sidestand
Hi all,
What's the advantage of the different aftermarket sidestands? you have Brown and surefoot, any other?
my main goal is to gat the bike to stand higher, not lean so deep when on the sidestand. I have backproblems so don't like centerstands to much.
oh yeah, it's a '74 R90/6
thanks
