While working with my 2nd round of covid I have time to go through my next project while "working from home"

So I have always fancied one of these beautiful bikes however they are stupidly expensive.

So after a few months of mulling over a bike that been up for sale I bit the bullet and I went and placed the order.

Its is not pristine and needs a lot of work, currently it is apart and will need the following before its ready for show

1 - New rubber

2 - New chain sprockets

3 - BMW decal kit on order and should arrive soon.

4 - Going to re paint the wheels and give her a new lease of life.

5 - Biggest and most import job, separate/organize all the pieces and begin the project

pics to follow
 
Forgot to add i am considering upgrading some parts to the "M" spec bike and maybe make it stand out a bit more if i can
 
workshop manual is excellent and going start working today on it and make as much progress as I can while at home
 
so have started on gearbox, fitted a new gold chain and progress is going well
