BMW restorer.

Post by steve murdoch icoa #5322 »

Out for a ride on the weekend and ended up at an open house for a vintage BMW restoration shop.
Mike have you heard of a guy named Dutch Lammer?
Of the 30 or so bikes on display a couple of them were mint copies but most were riders which suited me fine.
The two-tone "smoke" paint scheme still looks great.
Surprising to me was of the 30 BMW bikes in the visitor parking, probably 25 of them were the dual purpose GS model.

I wish I could hit the lottery. I tell people that I am a motorcycle slut, I like them all. :clap:

Steve:

Although I do own one, I am not that active and involved in the "Airhead" scene. Not familiar with Dutch Lammer :think: Where is he located?

Looks like he has all the desirable models there: R90S, both in Smoke and Daytona Orange, several R100Sess including a final edition and a R100RS Motosport. In addition to a couple of very sought after RS solo seats hanging on the wall :clap:
The R90Ses have become totally overpriced. Going rate for a good example is $8,000.- or more, with some reaching 15K. And all this while the R100S is the better bike. It is like with the CBX: Everybody wants a 79, and the 80 is the better bike and rarer.

I also very much like that Pagoda SL. I also have one of these. 8)

I had a bunch of other pics mostly of the older bikes but i stink as a cameraman.
The shop is near the small city of Wainfleet about 30 minutes from Hamilton.
30 years ago i wouldn't consider owning a BMW, now they are quite appealing. haha.
