This thread bring back good memories, I have not ridden in years, but long ago before being married with children I did a bit of travel on bikes. For about 15 years I did not own a car, we rode all the old twisties in the Appalachia's. I got tired of being a target on the road when the city grew around me, and the bike got to the point of just being a garage ornament that was due for a rebuild.

Burnt orange Beemer. Be riding along and hear a tapping from the valve covers, stop, reset the valves by the side of the road with just the stock tools from under the seat and then keep riding.

The Corbin seat was well worth the money, it made long rides easier on the old tushy, the stock saddles are pretty awful

The engine was very easy to work on save the oil filter, I wondered why they put the oil filter where they did, the two piece filters were a godsend.
