Engine out


Don't lift the engine out, lower the frame! This was a lot easier than what I was anticipating.


Frame parts to be painted. I need to take the driveshaft out of the swing arm and then find someone to prep and paint this. I don't have the patience or resources to do this myself.


It's all there. There are a bunch of little projects hiding on these shelves. Bearings, seals, cables, brakes, carb rebuilds ...

I need to get some miscellaneous parts on eBay and raise some cash. The one "cosmetic" item that I need yet is a seat; I refuse to put the R65 seat back on and I doubt if it would fit with a /6 tank anyway. Luke wants to get this one http://www.corbin.com/bmw/bmw6g.shtml for $350. I would probably shop for a used /6 seat for less.
