Plus I probably missed a few hundred dollars in misc. parts and service..........

In addition to parts and subcontracted services, the following work has been done during the restoration process:
• Wheels removed, glass beaded & clear powder coated
• Bike was stripped down to the frame, most of which was repainted
• Installed and balanced new Metzler Lasertech tires.
• Installed and adjusted preload on front and rear wheel bearings
• All component parts were cleaned, repainted and waxed during reassembly
• Charging system rebuilt/rewired – Omega diode board with solid mounts
• New heavy duty voltage regulator installed
• Accessory 12V socket installed
• New Oddyssey Extreme dry cell battery installed. Can be stored for two years on a full charge without failing.
• Valves adjusted and new valve cover gaskets installed
• Carburetors cleaned and adjusted
• New spark plugs installed
• Complete tune up sequence performed from plug installation to carburetor balancing
• Replaced fuel lines and added aftermarket filters
• Gas tank epoxy coated inside – tank was flushed, cleaned and new internal filters installed
• Transmission and clutch splines cleaned and lubricated
• Brake lines drained, flushed and refilled with new fluid – brake pads are 80%
• Oil and filter changed
• Transmission, driveshaft & final drive fluids replaced
• Swing arm bearings removed, cleaned, greased, replaced and adjusted
• Clutch adjusted...........
Following is a list of special tools (purchased and custom built) and documentation that go with the bike:
• Custom made spacers (2) for setting the preload on front and rear wheel bearings
• Finned exhaust nut wrench
• Classic Boxer Charging Manual by Rick Jones
• Home built manometer for balancing carbs
• Manuals and custom instruction folder for mechanical troubleshooting/repair/adjustment of major components. Explosion drawings, torque chart and part lists included (with dirty finger prints)
• Maintenance schedule
• 2008 BMW owners Anonymous Book..........
Following is a list of spare parts and materials that go with the bike:
• Spare halogen headlight bulb
• Wheel preload shims
• Wheel bearing lubrication tool
• Spring balance for adjusting wheel bearing preload
• Misc. bulbs
• Cotton dust cover
• Replacement clutch cable
• Fork oil
• Cleaners, wax. Lubricants and Misc............
Following is a list of items that need done to make the bike 100% mechanically & electrically complete (I ran out of time):
• Oil change (last changed fall of 2007 prior to winter storage)
• Loosen all fairing screws, realign components and retighten – it’s tweaked out of square a bit.
• Front turn signals do not work – repair
• Horns do not work – repair
• Replace front fork oil – in stock
• Redo tune up to improve engine response

Exceptions:
• Minor damage to fairing and left side mirror
• Mismatched paint color on one new battery cover


One change that I had planned was to remove the tires/tubes and spotface the inside of the rim at the valve hole. Replace the tires without tubes to make roadside repairs possible. I researched this thoroughly and it can be done safely with the BMW snowflake wheels.
