    BMW R90S with 115km

    We had a stand at the Classic Bike Show with BMW's and had the loan of a 1974 R90s with 115 kms on it from new.

    Restorers go to a lot of trouble to get the pin stripes to line up, unlike BMW.
    The new owner wants it back on the road but I suspect it will take a lot of work.
    For starters, has the dodgy 1974 gearbox issues to sort thru.
    Story is that the Wellington buyer who purchased from Jensens in Newmarket had a dispute and it sat unused since.
    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.
