Does your R65LS have hazard warning lights?mine doesn't seem to have then,i'm not sure if the older bikes should have them or not,i'm in the UK so maybe the law is different here?if mine does have them then i can't find how to turn them on?where are they supposed to be? :-?

Mine is a 1982, and does not have hazard warning lights.

This was an option that you could add.

The BMW hazard switch kit fits in the blank between the speedo and the tach.  There was a guy selling them from Germany last year on ebay but he wanted a lot of money for it.  I put on a Kisan signal minder (turn signal canceller) part of which is a Hazard flasher/and turn signal running lights.  The part number for my 1980 was SM-1.

Not to Hyjack this thread but does any body have a part number for red lenses of the rear turn signals??  I could use 'em.

I was lucky to find a NOS flasher kit on eBay a few years ago.  The seller was S. Meyer.

The set-up Semper Gumby has sounds superior.



If I remember correctly, the red lenses only show up on eBay from a private manufacturer, now?
