Gidday,

Yep, got me one again, well its in the mail soon and on its way next week at some stage

1978 R100rs with 137000kms, checked out the vin number and its an RS off the production line with matching engine and frame numbers and comes with panniers and frames

Love the "flying bloody clot" colour although not original and the line down the centre of the tank sides area is a little disturbing to the eye but I should be able to get the patina to stand out lovely.

The bike itself is ready for a roadworthy now am told, it runs very sweetly the elderly owner said, fingers crossed there!! and he would not hesitate in riding it around Oz today and its had 3 owners.

The install of the fairing, the recovering of the seat and the removal of those stupid looking front indicators will be the first jobs to do along with a good few more no doubt once I see and sit on it.







Nothing like a bit of shed time therapy!

Thats exciting news Grant. Well done.
Cheers Mal

Gidday.

Yes to right Mal, have been looking and drooling over a few for a while now mate, the resto shed will now feel complete with an old beemer sitting in there beside the Chevy..

Will post up some more pix as I go along with and over it in the coming weeks.

Wow thats pretty. Welcome back to the airhead club!

Nice one Grant!

I knew you wouldn't last without one!

Sweet!

Nice! Welcome back to 247-land.

Well done, Grant. You'll have proper fun with that.

Gidday,

Thanks for the replies fellas, yep should be fun when it arrives, even my wife gave it the thumbs up!!

So question number 1 of many that will slowly show up in weeks to come on here:

You see the engine badges are missing I'm wondering what should the correct badges be and look like for a 78 RS?? and also if anyone on here would have a spare set (long shot I know) but its the best place to start and ask.

Thanks for any info that you forward.
