Airhead Instrument Pod Bulbholder - what year

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to identify the BMW part number or applicable year for the instrument bulbholder pictured.

 

Note the pattern of small and large bulb openings on this one:

Large - Small - Large - Small - Small, from top to bottom.

Also note the 3 spades on the left side which I think connect to an electronic tach.

 

If anyone can identify correct years I'd appreciate it.

Reference the part number on it withe the on-line fische at MAXBMW and see what you come up with.

The part number on the circuit panel, 5 4401 126 00, is a MotoMeter part number and doesn't match a BMW part.

Part # 62111356665

Common to R60/6 /7 R75/6 /7, R90/6 /7, and R100/6 /7.

Nope... I didn't say this would be easy. That part (above) actually has a photo to go with it in the MaxBMW parts fiche. Completely different layout.

As changes were made in the instrument pod, the bulb holder has gone through many changes in it layout. I have an R60/6, it definitely doesn't work in those bikes with cable driven tachometers. But, thanks guys I appreciate that you are looking.

Pretty sure it worked like this:

 

'74-'77 (cable-operated tach)

 

'78-'80 (electronic tach) (needles from orange to white, too)

 

'81 on (no longer a brake fluid level warning light; high beam light moved from tach to center stack)
