88 K75 Just getting started

Just acquired this 1988 K75, doesn't run, was told it needs fuel pump and injectors. Fuel in the tank still smells fresh and it isn't all varnished. Pretty clean for a old bike. Plan is to Cafe it once I get it running, until then here's what it looks like right now. Should be a good time let's see where this goes.

It will be a while before I am selling off parts. Want to just get it running first, then we will see where it goes from there.

Check out this page

before replacing parts willy nilly on the suggestion of someone who obviously couldn't fix it themselves. That bike looks like a nice survivor, shame to make non reversible mods to it.
