Two subjects: New Members and Spam

I have not been on Boxerworks very often in the past year, just kind of drifted away. Spending time at AdvRiders and a Minnesota Dual Sport board.

It's time to start putting the R100GS back together after dropping a valve last summer.

Whoops! Did it do much damage, Curt?

The head was beat to death, both valves heads broke off, the piston has a golf ball size hole and the cylinder is scored. It looked very much like the damage the Veg's Bat Bike suffered.

I have purchased a set of nice heads, one "B" piston and cylinder off of E-Bay. I need to check the rod to for straightness, then put it back together.

Ouch! Did you get a motor full of shrapnel? Hope you were close to home when it gave up!

I found this place after I quit spending $40 a year with BMWMOA to hear about the brand known as BMW and too much focus on new bikes. To me, that was SPAM. The Airhead Beemer Club has no forum. I like this place and look forward to meeting some of the folks here at the Boxerworks Forum rally in May.

Yes - I have subscribed to that list. Even with a daily digest, too much stuff not relevant to me. I check back in from time-to-time. I also stay in touch with the Air Marshall from Louisiana - heading there for a tech day in early April.
