Does anyone know if the later fairing for a 1200 Trophy will fit the earlier version? Just I like the twin headlamps that I have seen. -- -- Robbo BMW K100 RS 1984 "Fairly Quick" status. Silver level BotaFOF #19. E.O.S.M 2001/2002/2003/2004. B.O.S.M 2003, 2004 FURSWB#1 KotL..YTC449 PM#7 ..
I could be wrong, but I'm sure the Trophy never came with twin lights on the original incarnation - only on the later ones like Platy (had) and TOG have. The twin lights were on the Daytona and, ISTR, Sprint.
Correct. The lights on mine were lovely: wonderfully effective twin H4s. Alas, they are no longer - swept up from the gutter three weeks ago today. And today I hear that the Trophy itself has been writ orf.
As the frame is the same, the answer is..... it should.... ....but all the mountings and brackets will be different, and the instruments (which sit in a recess in the fairing) are too. So the answer is no, not without a **** of a lot of work.
All I could think of from the subject line was "Nah, fork 'andles, 'andles for forks" Anyways, Powerbronze do/did a range of twin headlight conversions. IIRC, the Trophy was on of the models in their range. HTH
Well, that makes it easier, doesn't it? Now all you have to do is screw the InsCo of the dim cow wot knocked you orf and grab a substantial cheque. Innit.
That's the plan. I won't be riding anything for a few weeks yet, and I'm in no hurry to replace it. I'll prolly use the Drifter as a winter hack, but I'm having to do my sums WRT the Beemer - I've been toying with the idea of refurbing it, but I reckon I'll prolly blow a grand getting it sorted, and then I see stuff like this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2491558696&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT ....which appears to be in splendid condition, if a bit silvery, and I think how much easier it would be just to part out the old one and buy something decent. Well, I'm not going to need a 2-up bike until the spring, anyway.
Aye. You're catching on, Owen ;-) For further reading and edification, try this: http://bovis.gyuvet.ch/3dict/312usene.htm
