1967 R69S restoration
1967 R69S restoration
With the milage and no history the only thing to do is open the engine and look around. I assume I will do the same for the transmission. The tank is in excellent condition and is red coated with fresh fuel.
I restored a 66 R60/2 about 5 years ago so Im familiar with most of the bike.
Like before I hope to document the restoration here for advise and comments.

I agree. It's amazing sometimes to see all the modification to these old bikes. My intentions are to bring it back to stock. I found a new fender but Im still looking for a used seat. If anyone has one or knows where one is please let me know.schrader7032 wrote: ↑Sun May 08, 2022 6:43 amSome custom "touches" but it should buff out just fine!
thanks

Nope. It's surprisingly easy to tear them apart. Being retired has its benefits.
