R80

So this is my first bike. You always remember your first. Had my first and only semi-serious get off on this bike. Sold it as a parts bike way back, like 88 or 89.

Last fall I tracked it down and bought it back. Short a few parts but it's slowly working it's way back to the street.

Here it is in it's day... Dual plug heads, Clip-ons, Raask rear sets, Bub exhaust, etc etc.

Soon, she will ride again. In the same color of course although other bits will change.

Gotta start somewhere....

Break it, fix it, repeat as needed.

So I like to work on stuff, usually powered by petrol or diesel but anything that I use may fall victim.

Currently there are too many to list but I'll try and get to all of that.

Front and center this month are the Land Rover, the GSXR maybe some work on the SR and poking at the BMW.

The Land Rover is (at it's core) a 1967 series IIa 109 Station Wagon. Aka - the 109.
Next up, 1988 GSXR1100. Aka - the Eleven
Next, 1978 Yamaha SR500E. You guessed it - the SR
And finally, 1978 BMW R80/7. The R80

So that's a first rundown of projects. All modified from stock in various ways and of course I've got a list of modifications in mind for them.
