Description
this is my bike
which I love to pieces
rode it from the age of 14
(after years on the back)
turned 18 esp. for this thing
(it's a BMW R27)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_R27
my father bought it 2nd hand -for 80 guilders- and revised it completely
-with some help of this child- ;-)
due to circumstances it has been under the dust in the garage for yearsssss
-and dirt & cob webs as u can see-
and I dreamt about it for the same number of years...
age starts to show, i.e. to my disgust discovered some rust :-(
it's almost 50 years of age now
since I had to clear out the garage after my mother's passing, I brought it to a caravan storage nearby
no time to take proper pics
BIG PLANS!!!
hopefully will get it pretty and running again
with some help of my .....
-strange black round thing strapped to the back is a rucksack, no part of the bike ;-), containing -organic- cooking pears (how u call?) from our tree for Leo & Mieke, cuz I would be passing their house -
(if you've never ridden a 'real' motorcycle, don't!
it will get your blood racing n you'll never be able to ban it out ;-)
nothing beats the feeling of getting your motor running...
-besides horse back riding of course- )
in for a ride? ;-D
-it's not light weighted as u can see here-

oh Yeah! no matter the size or make, once you've ridden, you cannot get rid of that feeling! I wish you the best ps: how can you tell who is a happy biker - the one with bugs in their teeth!

Nice set of shots of your venerable motorcycle, having languished in your garage for eons. Steve McQueen would have liked this. Hope you get it in good running order so you can ride it between the dikes, Angie.
