BMW r90s bitsa bomber

Pics of the rebuilt starter. You can see the bushings in some of the pics. New solenoid, new brushes, new bushings, and 1/2lb of coke removed from inside of it. No more squeak, and she starts every time...no clickety clickety.

Actually Mike, I've put over 300 miles on it this past week! Running like a dream.

BMW's don't like short shakedown trips. Once you're on, they tend to take over and you end up 500 miles from home in a hurry :)
 
You're not kidding Tim. It's one of those bikes I just wanna keep on riding. Hang on timer, I'll get you a link.

Dude.
I love this thing. I was wondering what you were going to do about the seat for long trips.

Thanks broski! I love it too. It's quickly becoming my favorite bike. It's just a do all. And a fun one. And yeah, that seat was in the plans all along. Took me hours to get the "ass feel" right by adjusting the foam but it was worth it!

More things in the bike building world come down to that than we realize!
 
It's very cool! Superfluous glamour shot before my ride this morning. 500 miles and going strong!

Just thought I'd let you guys know we broke 1000 miles since rebuild. Still running like a champ! Great bike.
