Hi folks, just arrived here, I'll tell you why. I already have 3 excellent motorcycles, just moved to Bend, then a friend visited for the holidays (a guy I've ridden thousands of bicycle miles with). I have 2 high end road bicycles and as we walked by them in my garage, my friend says, "gawd, I love that Pinnerello!" I sarcastically replied, "I'll trade you straight across for something but it better be good!" Eric stated, "I'll trade you straight across for my BMW motorcycle". Like I said, I have another high end bike (Cannondale) so, Holy Smokes, we did a deal, sight unseen for me. It is a very unused 1990 BMW K75RT, anltilock, new Dunlops, with 24k miles! It is a diamond in the rough (my favorite type of scooter to acquire so I can bring it back to beautiful, it's begging for it!). It's just been sitting, covered, for years in his garage! Now.......he went to Mexico for a 10 day vacation so I can't SEE or pick up the scooter till Jan 21st! I made him send me this one pic before he flew away so this is all I have to stare at! Kinda funny because I'm currently building a Honda Cafe Racer but this BMW has really diverted my emotions! So, glad to be here, more pics later before, during and after the restoration.......
