PM gestuur, kyk jou Messages.  

My 2004 1150GSA loop afgelope 4 jaar met 'n staarter (moderne Afrikaans!) wat by Sparxx Automotive in Brackenfell gekoop is. 

Detail:

Item Code STR673A

Description STR 12V BMW Motorcycles R1100 

(maw lyk my die 1100 en 1150 gebruik dieselfde eenheid)

Die eenheid in my GSA is laas week gediens omdat dit hakerig en raserig geraak het. Basies was dit net vuil (veral op die as van die bendix) van ryery deur water en op stofpaaie. Borsels is nog goed.

Die oorspronklike eenheid het ek nog altyd, maar hy is baie siek. Hy is biki lui om die bendix uit te skop, maar erger nog, hy trek 'n gesonde battery pap-dood binne 'n paar draaie. So iewers binne hom is 'n kortsluiting.

Voorspoed met jou soektog, laat weet wat jy regkry!

Danie - it is probably the magnets in your broken starter that have come adrift.  They cause it to jam from time to time and short out the battery.  A known issue with these starters due to the glue holding the magnets in the housing failing.  I bought a replacement starter that has the magnets physically mounted without glue.

Thanks for info. I will check it out some time. Fortunately the current starter (and the GSA) runs like a clock.

The old/original starter was okey when I tested it last week, worked fine when installed but played up three days later. Could be the magnets....causing friction on the rotor? 

Bugger, I have a new R1100 flywheel, but I checked wont work on the 1150.

Enige vordering?

Daar is iemand anders wat 'n soortgelyke probleem het.

Enige vordering?

Daar is ander ouens op die forum vir wie jou inligting nuttig kan wees!

HI

Thank you for all the help thus far. I have managed to get a flywheel. Thanks Deon. 

There might be a starter motor from peugeot that could work on the 1150GS. 

Waiting on the part number. 

will phone Sparxx Automotive in Brackenfell to see if they can assist.

Will keep you updated - hopefully the 1150 will be running soon.  

I got mine from this website: http://www.euromotoelectrics.com/Starter-BMW-R-Oilhead-BMW-STR2-p/bmw-str2.htm

Renier:   I am desperately looking for a starter motor and flywheel on my 2002 1150 GS.

Enige vordering, Renier?

Kyk na jou Messages, ek het iets gestuur.

HI All

Apologies for the delayed response, As indicated I found the flywheel -  Deon is definitely a "go to" person for Parts on the 1150GS models.  Details : 0837648535

I phoned Sparxx, unfortunately they did not have any starters. 

I am now looking to import 1 of these to get the bike going ASAP.

Will keep you updated on the progress.

Regards

Renier

Dit lyk presies soos die siek een wat ek uitgehaal het uit my 2004 1150gsa.

Enigste verskil is dat die rat bietjie wyer is. Maar die wyer rat is soos die een wat nou in my gsa diens doen

Baie Dankie

Dan gaan ek voort gaan en hom bestel. 

Groete,

Renier

HI All

Just to keep you posted on the progress. 

Have the Flywheel and the starter motor I ordered from USA has arrived. Looking to get them fitted and we should be up and running again.

BMW is charging +-3000 on the Labour -  Any other suggestions on who will be able to do the job and save me some funds?

Regards,

Renier
