Rainbow Parts Fiche
Anyone else having difficulty accessing the Rainbow BMW Parts Fiche lately. They seem to have changed the format and I can't get past their new Home Page.

Re: Rainbow Parts Fiche
Recently phoned Rainbow BMW & asked the same question. The reply was something about change of ownership & normal service would be resumed sometime next month (December 2017).

Re: Rainbow Parts Fiche
Thanks, the MAX BMW parts list is very good, it also includes some photos.
The Rainbow BMW list had parts prices in £'s not $'s, hopefully, this will be available again in the future.

Re: Rainbow Parts Fiche
Same here, I used the MAX BMW for some time before discovering the Rainbow site which as David says, gives the prices in Sterling. Thanks anyway bandytales.

Re: Rainbow Parts Fiche
I'm confused.com, the link takes you to a site with Rybrook Warwick BMW (UK) in the top right-hand corner.
Have entered the VIN-code for my RT to compare prices against a quote recently received from a UK dealer for some parts.
Looking at the pivot bearings for the FD unit, https://www.online-parts.co.uk/bmw-bike ... nth=04#sub,
04 Angular contact ball bearing, radial (33117665037) is £39.38 (incl. 19 % VAT excl. Shipping costs).
VAT is 20% and the quote I've got gives a cost of £35.81 (inc. VAT) for the same bearing.

Re: Rainbow Parts Fiche
Yep, Shaun and Lorna have retired and Rainbow is now Allan Jeffries South Yorkshire. Everyone else has stayed on.
