Best place to find Brick parts near Fort Lauderdale, FL?
« on: January 29, 2015, 09:52:08 AM »
Hello folks,

There may be a better place to post a question like this, but I found that a lot of the other sections were inactive.

I am going to be vacationing in Fort Lauderdale, FL in February. Curious if anyone here lives in that area and can suggest a place to pick up some OEM (or similar) parts for my K75. Here on the East Coast of Canada, it's a real pain to find a BMW dealer. I figured I'd take advantage of being in the US to help out the K75 as well.

Cheers.

Why not order from a larger dealer like Bobs or others countryside for discount and have shipped?  Many older Kbike parts not stocked by local dealers in my experience

Nothing specific to Florida, but my local BMW dealer is very nice and a fun place to visit.  As for parts for the old bikes they have to be ordered.  Takes the dealer days to months to get parts, so order ahead.

My favorite sources are MaxBMW (in New Hampshire) and Beemer Boneyard (in New Jersey; put "BMWMOA" in the discount box when checking out, and get 10% off). Great service always.  Have your order shipped to your vacation address in Florida and sneak it home under your dirty underwear.
