When removing the tank from my 93 R100GSPD the rubber spacer fell to the ground. I can not determine where it is to be relocated. I've been told it attaches to the tank itself with rubber cement. This seems weird to me as I feel it would be better to attach to the frame, but who am I to question why BMW decided to place it where they did? Anyway, I just need to know where on the tank to "glue' it back on. Measurement from rear & or front & hopefully I can find the exact center & re-glue it on.
Thank you in advance for this information.

Cheers, Todd

Good afternoon Todd,

If the rubber spacer you are asking about is the same as on my 93PD it fits on the front of the tank. Every time I remove my tank it falls off. I have not glued it as I just place it on the tank. There probably is a notch on one long side and it attaches to the tank. It has never fallen off after 55,00+ miles of road and off road riding.

I hope this helps.

Jim
