I have a 'generic' wiring diagram for the electronic ignition system, and if the system is totally 'inop' check the green wire at the ignition control unit, that's the component that has the heatsink bolted to it under the seat, for voltage with the ignition switch in the 'run' position.

Shane,
You might be able to get a manual from these guys http://www.motohansa.com.au/bmw_parts.htm
looks like they're local to you and classic bike friendly. Have you tried amazon.com for a used manual?
