Hm. looks to me like he got a case of Krylon-60 rattle cans in black, then said "oh look, my BMW badge finally arrived in the post" and stuck it on...

+1 - I too thought it looked like a cheap rattle-can resto. (aka - it looks like doodie!!)

There is nothing wrong with having a little patina on an old bike like that. Here's a pic of my ole' '73 60/5 that I parted with (none too unwillingly) a li'l while back. Freakin' thing drove like a tractor (even more than more recent beemers do). Sometimes nostaglia is just WRONG.

I have to wonder what these people know about BMWs since they don't recognize the 'weird swing arm' front end as an Earles fork that was standard on this (and a lot of other) BMWs.

 
Mixed emotions on this one.

I have an R60 and R69S in the stable.

I would NEVER ******* EVER destroy them like these blokes have done.

Then again, if they had an incomplete POS /2 and got high and needed to define their ball sack in terms that even an android would understand, then I get it.

..hmm, I wonder how dirt worthy that gurl might be? I've taken an R80 and my R60, with street tires, to places guyz with full knobbies shook their heads..

ok,

Maybe it's not as bad as I originally thought.

...on second thought, yes it is.

..and the fact you like that abortion of a good fine /2 is exactly why the /2's stay safe in Creston! :lol:
