The tire pump that came with my 74 R60/6 is only for looks now a days...is there an aftermarket pump that will fit on the rear frame? Or is there an outlet to get mine rebuilt?
Thanks, Jim
There are several available on eBay. I bought one and it looks great. If you actually intend to inflate tires I'd recommend a CO2 filler or a 12V electric inflator.
Good ideas...
predicated on the idea that the rider carries a patch kit or spare tube, and is practiced at using tire tools.

Owning an old Airhead is easy.
Keeping an old Airhead running great is the true test.
@wwobbly... and still has the tire tool in their kit... if they still have their kit...
I have been fortunate, as I still have a bmw co2 bottle and patch kit I have been carrying around for three + decades...I probably need to replace them...
I have found an aftermarket metal pump, in case mine is irreparable...
@10385 I just picked up a old pump on e bay . How does it attach under the seat ?

@81rtbc Spring tension keeps it suspended between the 2 teets on the Left rear frame, accessible by raising the seat.

I picked this up recently for field testing. It's intended for R100 GSPD bikes. Lezyne have high pressure or high volume variants, spares kits, etc.

I forgot to follow up. A gent had an original in good condition that he sent me from the UK, for the same price as an aftermarket pump! All is well in the world, once again 🙂
