My bike was knocked over by an RV driver at a rest area this past summer. Teh damage is covered by the other fella's insurance, but there is no BMW shop anywhere near me. A local mc shop took the fairing off, and found the mounting bracket was broken and several pieces of hardware missing. I was given a newer bracket fo rhte bike when I bought it. (should have asked why, no?). My question is: does BMW or anyone else sell a fairing mounting hardware kit for a '93 K1100 LT?
Thanks, Brent

No such kit exists.

You can look at the parts fiche though which will give you the sizes of the generic bolts and such and pick those up at the hardware store for a lot less than BMW will charge you.

Here'x a write-up I did on removing a K75RT fairing. Though not identical to a K1100LT it's fairly similar:

Desmot Parts. Anyone used the stainless fastener kit from these guys? 151 pieces for $55, labelled in bags. All fairing fasteners included. I figure buying separate fasteners from BMW would at least cost as much, no?

The Desmo kit is definitely a good buy. BMW nuts and bolts aren't that expensive, but the Desmo kit will give you more bang for the buck.
