No. you are not quite correct..........
Requirements are >>
Shaft drive.
Aircooled Horizontally opposed twin.
BMW or a derivative eg URAL Dneiper. etc.
Guzzis cos them are just Beemers with Pert Boobies
Mainly because it's a workshop meeting, we need to be able to repair these antique motorcycles without computers
cos there's no place to plug one into..Also they have C A R B U R E T T O R S not new fangled injectors..
Also be whipping a g/box off and other easy [ when you know how ] jobs..
No use at all to you computerised modern GS riders
{ I KNOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT OILHEAD OR CHAINGANG BMW's { apart from what oil}so it's a waste of time asking me..
BUT I've had Airheads on the road since 1972}
Space is at a premium and this is the first such event, lets see how this goes and maybe next year
try and educate you MODERN GS riders into the intricacies of the old school BEEMERS If it's that important to you, borrow or buy a cheap airhead of Fleabay and we'll be glad to see you
You can even Van or Trailer it down, as long as you have one in your company ....

Is there another type of ST airhead then?
she could also do with having the push rod tubes and seals changed, I could bring them along if someone fancies showing me how to do it?

You really do deserve your Smilie ya wa nker
You cheeky old duffer, I'm coming down next friday to check some tracks
I'm booking mine in for the three oils and a filter change saturday afternoon.
Valves if you have time (chance to see my fancy one piece rockers).

Can I bring my box of bits for someone to put back together for me.
Oh and the frame needs stoving
Suffice to say the RS won't be finished in time for the event.
Can I come on the oil head to gain much required valuable experience.
mines dripping petrol on my painted garage floor

I will grab some stainless ones, what else do I need to order to do this job? I am guessing a top end gasket set, does that come with pushrod seals? and will one of the people going have a drift to knock them home, or do I need to buy one of those too?

I'm hoping one of the Gurus will bring his drift
when you buy the tubes they sometimes come with the seals otherwise they should ask
waste of time fitting new tubes on old seals yup top gasket set
Oil and filters will be available
