Tim Stafford Restorations

Not sure I want to manufacture to many things, but this is cool for now.

Got some new tools/supplies/toys to make battery wires for 1970s BMW’s The ones BMW sells cost bank and they decided to downsize the wire gage I went with American made pure copper high heat (125C) SGX 4 gage with tin plated solid copper closed end terminals and glued heatshrink. They will be on eBay soon, as well as my builds.

Onto the 1973 R90S.

Just a few more details to go for the ‘72 BMW R50/5.

More progress pix. The green one is a R50/5, red is a R75/5, both 1972.

Progress pix of the two /5s

No less than 11 swing arms cleaned up and ready to build..... but I just need a nap. Tomorrow’s another day and these will be fun!

So that was a fun way to spend a Saturday’s afternoon. Now time for dinner and drinks with the wingman.

This motor is getting heavy

Saying goodbye to a old friend. I have held onto this last pore for 8 years. That makes this last one 28 years old. Good by Van Winkles, we shared some good times together.

Getting my ducks in a row! I have 8 motors to build in the next few weeks.

Turning two window /2 tappets..... into /2 tappets. See what happens when we use slang for our bikes, no one understands, Unless you twin cam guys are looking
