On my route to the Alps yesterday just spotted this airhead workshop and outside was for bikes waiting to be restored. However the owner had an R90 S attached to a sidecar for winter riding
 
The engine isn't 90s either. Looks like he found a 90s starter cover :D

That's all post 81 gear except for the airbox and cover.
 
Is that tank a bit special, looks simialr to some handmade aluminium ones I've seen for G/S?

I think its a Hoske tank. So we have established that in fact almost nothing about that bike is an R90s ! :P
 
Come on gentlemen Playfair I was only showing you something rather nice and interesting as I'm on my travels through Europe.

So here are a couple of bikes on top of the Grimsel pass that know one can deny are not drop dead gorgeous
 
One of the guys on advrider bought one. The tank lobes were at different heights. I think all your buying is a starting point
