A piano playing mechanic? You’re a real renaissance man! Well done on the BMW, this was a lot of fun to watch.

[@BigPezza]

Yeah 🤣 👍 still more bits to do on the BMW

[@guyonacub4335]

Nice to see a proper motorcycle back on the road
I salute you 👏
Enjoy

[@frankboff8185]

Excellent it’s running and riding, all recommissioned bikes need fine tuning, but at least you can ride it about. Really enjoyed this project.

[@BigPezza]

still needs a few more bits to get it to where i would be happy with it

[@OlderButNotWiser]

Well done.
I know the feeling regarding keeping motivated on a project, but it certainly helps once you can throw a leg over it & go for a ride.
Good work. 👍

[@BigPezza]

Absolutely!

[@leslieaustin151]

Good to see it on the road. Hope it goes well on the next test. I’m looking forward to it. Les

[@BigPezza]

Getting there

[@ivofer8349]

[@BigPezza]

Master of none

[@MarkOneMoto]

Bloody brilliant!..she sounds awesome!..great work mate and piano playing too, who knew !..ha ha, rsmf, Mark

[@BigPezza]

Thanks 👍 still got a few more jobs to do on the bike

[@MrDesmonick]

Nice to see it running on both pots 😁👍

[@BigPezza]

Yeah 😂

[@jesselizabeth2002]

I've quite enjoyed this series, glad to see the bike finally rideable, it really shows how "easy" it is to work on bikes. I look forward to seeing it on the patron trip (if you're using it).
If you change your mind and figure a way to use the givi pannier rails for it, let me or Lonewally know.
Also, side note, I think packing peanuts dissolve in water 😂

[@BigPezza]

I hope to be on the r80 but its still not ready for a long road trip

[@onanysundrymule3144]

Excellent stuff Sir.

[@HippoDrones]

Awesome stuff Pez 🙂

[@rodneyhull9764]

Good work

[@BigPezza]

Thanks

[@CuriousGoose]

IT'S ALIVE!!!

[@BigPezza]

The real worry now is will I like riding it 🤔😅

[@theodorstravels]

Could you have printed a new carburetor? Would fuel dissolve the material?

[@BigPezza]

🤔🤔 I suspect that would be a very very bad idea 😅 would have been cheaper

[@theodorstravels]

@@BigPezza would it though? Are there plastics that are not affected by oil and ethanol, but can be used in printer?

[@BigPezza]

Regular carburettor parts are affected by the ethanol in petrol so I think 3D printed stuff wouldn't stand a chance
