After 13 years I picked up another BMW-- 1974 R75/6

Its nice having a BMW back in my life albeit a bit of a rough one. This winter I plan on going through it and making it rideable for spring. Its great to have a community like this to help me and the bike get going again.

Welcome home.

A great winter project as you live in an area where winters are cold, snowy, long and dark.

How about posting some pics of your work as things progress. We always love to see works in progress.

Glad to have you here.

WElcome to the Forum. I was up your way last December when I drove up to Rider's Warehouse to get fitted for my Darian Aerostich clothing. The morning I dropped in at Rider's Warehouse, it was -22 degrees. You folks sure get some cold weather up that way. By the time I go to your town. the snow was coming down quite heavily, but the temp was up to a balmy -11. Hope this forum helps keep your long winter nights comfortable.
