Please help. I really can't find a picture of a 1971 R50/5 for my desktop. I'd rather not have a lot of background. (buildings, lakes, cows, etc.) Just an original 1971 R50/5. (I know Something has to be in the background).
Thank you.

hey Daz, found this one while looking for pics of pinstripes for a friend. Again, it's an R60/5 and the seat's wrong for a early /5, but is much more hi rez. Click on pic and "view image":

Too bad this is not an R50/5. But it's ok, I'll use it until I get mine looking better. Thanks compadre.

I still think the /5s are the most sexy BMWs of all time.

Well heck, here's my bike. It doesn't look too bad? I'm hoping to get it cleaned up a bit. The rear wheel has rust on the spokes. Any suggestions? Of course there are dozens of other blemishes I'd like to correct.

Every airhead should have come equipped with a piece of 4x2

Are 2 X 4s called 4 X 2s for the same reason toilets spin backwards down there?
