1992 R80GS Refresh

Smashing job John. Like I said before "refresh" does not really do justice to your work on this thread! :thumb2
 
Lovely sunny afternoon here in Northumberland so took the opportunity to empty the garage of bikes and give it a spring clean and take some pictures of the R80GS outside

Proper job ,
Nice one mate.:thumby:

Thanks Mike , at some point I'll get the engine / gearbox and wheels over to you for a full refurb but its running well for now so it can wait for a while , probably be a project for next winter ;-)
 
What's the pile of kit by the paddock stand? Was that the contents of your panniers? :D

Looking smart now it is finished.

The pile of kit is the paddock stands , battery chargers , U-Locks /cables and bike covers for the three XChallenges which are lurking behind the R80GS in the 3rd and 4th photos ;-)
 
When you get the wheels refurbed, have them anodised the same colour as the 850.

Not 100% on that one , question is do I get the F850GSA engine bars and fork stanchions painted yellow ?

Perhaps I wait until I've actually ridden it I think , took delivery in October and not been out on it yet.....
 
A great job. I've really enjoyed this thread, many thanks for taking the time to keep us all in the loop....:)
 
Received the PD cockpit side panels today from Germany so will get the PD tank fitted and get some new pictures posted

They even sent me a free sticker and marked the parcle as 5 Euros value and a gift so no VAT or import duties to pay :-)



 
Finally got round to fitting the PD tank and panels

Just need to get it booked in for an MOT now and once out of lockdown I can actually get to ride it at last
