The BMW is now working.

Quotes from May 2018
It was an impulse buy. I had started to restore my very rusted 1984 BMW R65LS and it was dawning on me that, with the time I could spend on it, this would be a 1-2 year project. During that time I had no bike. So I thought how about getting a little runaround
But it’s probably a two year project and I really want something to ride in the meantime. Hence the Bullet.
It is time to say goodbye to the Bullet.
I will be sad to see it go. I have always liked big singles. It has filled a gap, and got me back into motorcycling. Prior to getting it I had not ridden a motorcycle for almost fifteen years!
