HELLA SPOTLIGHT SEARCH LAMP FOR PORSCHE 356 - VW BUS - BMW VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE


I am selling my personal "Perfect Condition" Hella Spotlight.  This one is the best of the collection. I was saving this for my next restoration, decided to let this go to another collector. I tested the light this morning and it works perfectly. These lights are great investments. The chrome is absolutely perfect, a solid 10. I took a lot of close up pictures to show you the pristine condition of this light, needs nothing, ready to mount. As you know these lights are not being reproduced, so there aren't many around. This will always be a good investment. I have a couple of these on my vintage BMW bikes, everyone comments on theses lights. I have a BMW catalog that shows these lights sold for about $25.00 about 50-60 years ago. I also have a "rare spotlight bracket" that I will be selling. I have been told this bracket mounts the spotlight on a vintage VW, Porsche or BMW sidecar. Take a look, I had a guy about 10 years ago offer me crazy money for this bracket. Thought I might use it someday. Decided to let it go. All of my sales on Ebay are vintage related and I have 100% positive feedback, so bid with confidence. I will be selling another Spotlight that needs some TLC, please look at my other items. I am also selling some very nice Dover White Craven Bags. Thanks and good luck! The ad is just for the Spot Light, not the bracket. It will be sold separately in another Ebay auction. I have purchased these lights before that needed a complete restoration. Most of this is pretty basic, with the exception of the chroming. It is almost impossible to find any decent chroming company that will do this because of the type metal that the Hella is made from. Then you will lay awake at night praying that the shop guys don't destroy the light during the cleaning and prep process. If they mess it up, they cannot replace the light. This is the reason you are much better off buying a light that is perfect to start with. It will save you a lot of money and stress. Thanks for looking!! Good luck

BMW Developing Organic OLED Lighting

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

BMW is developing a new organic light emitting diode lighting system for cars and motorcycles. Unlike conventional LEDs, organic LEDs (or OLEDs) uses wafer-thin semiconductive layers made from organic polymers to produce light. OLEDs are more efficient and emit less heat than LEDs.

1983 BMW R80G/S Dakar

Tue, 18 Dec 2012

A GS as an investment? This 1983 R80G/S is a good candidate. One owner for 20 years, it was then snapped up by a classic BMW restorer who's rebuilt the engine and fitted a few modern Siebnerock parts including new barrels and pistons.

WSBK 2013: Portimao Race Report

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Marco Melandri and Eugene Laverty split a pair of victories at Portugal’s Portimao circuit while Sylvain Guintoli took advantage of some misfortune to his championship rivals to increase his lead in the 2013 World Superbike Championship standings. Guintoli has been leading or sharing the lead in the championship since winning the first race of Round 1 in Australia, but amazingly continues to lead despite having just that single victory after six rounds. The Aprilia rider has accomplished this through his consistency (Guintoli leads all racers with nine podium finishes in 12 races) and ability to finish each race (he’s the only rider in the top seven without a DNF).
