Where to find parts books

[JOHNW67]

Hi All,

I have a few internet sites such as RealOEM that have part numbers associated with schematics, but I would like to have a hard copy. Where can I get such a thing?

thanks,

John

I bought one many years ago from Capital Cycle. It appears they still sell them.

I don't want to sell book - but nowadays I just use the Max BMW web site catalog.

BMW has been known to change part numbers from time to time. It has been most helpful to use the internet. Most of the dealers have stuff on line. I personally use maxbmwfiche to get my information. To me it is the userfriendliest website on the East Coast. The schematics that they have is also helpful.

Thanks guys!

I use the exploded views as a reference in the shop. That's the reason for the hard copy.

BMW Airhead part numbers are the least-changing automotive part numbers I've ever seen.

Hey John-

What vintage airhead? For /5's you can get a decent and free .pdf from http://www.motorrad-stemler.de/index_e.htm You can easily download and print a copy. Forgot to ask, how is your German?

Otherwise, all I have seen are the schematics you mentioned. Some are better than others.
