BAAS Bike Parts

BAAS updated right-angle DIN plug

Southern Germany based motorcycle electronics component manufacturer BAAS Bike Parts was founded in 2001 to specialise in "the development and distribution of innovative and universal motorcycle accessories," says founder Dirk Baas. 


All its products are manufactured to "our own high-quality standards, and we target to produce as much as possible here in Germany", with its 'Made in Germany' content is currently around 50 percent.
"Our mission is to develop specialty components and kits for all aspects of the electrics on a motorcycle – replacement parts and accessories that are difficult to source or simply not available elsewhere as individual items."
A classic example of the BAAS Bike Parts programme is the splash-proof BA12W DIN right-angle plug seen here. Designed for small sockets (e.g. SD14 or BMW, Triumph, Ducati series sockets), it is almost as compact as BAAS' well known BA12 right-angle connector, but the completely redesigned housing contains seals over the housing seam, the plug head and the mounting screw, making it even more weather tolerant for motorcycle use.
The tightly fitting, long cable grommet is tapered on the inside. Depending on the shortening of the grommet, the optimal fit to the outer cable diameter can be adjusted. The cable will be screwed or soldered as usual.
