First owner toured U.S. extensively on this bike. I'm third owner. I bought it in '82 as a basket-case out of a shed of chopped Triumphs and Harleys in West Virginia. Originally a '78 smoke-red 'Special' with cockpit fairing, etc. later repainted into a Motorsport 'S'. Over 175k miles now on bike. Engine cases gently cleaned with 3M Green pads and buffed with simichrome. Mystic factory chromed rocker covers. EPCO stainless 'sport' pipes. Luftmeister rotors fr/rr. Progressive rr shocks. Frenched rr mudguard, relocated taillight assembly, red police rr signal lenses, trimmed steel seat cowl. Panasonic battery. Custom 22mm broomstick bar. Luftmeister triple-clamp and tubular fork braces, and side-stand, Boyer-Bransden ignition. RR brake reservoir from an 'F' bike. Clear Tygon fuel line. Some pics show bike with polished steel tank and '78 police solo saddle - Denfeld - very comfortable - other pics with Corbin 'Gunfighter' saddle and sparkle silver powder-coated tank and seat cowl. Final drive rebuilt by Hansen's BMW in Medford, Oregon; heads, clutch, trans rebuilt a long time ago by Ted Porter (still running great). Also thanks to Bobs BMW for all the free coffee and the Airheads-List for all the free know-how.
