That's cool, I got introduced to BMW motorcycles through a friend that I met racing dirt bikes. He had bought a mint used '74 R90S and we use to ride tandem on it fairly often. We kept trying to corner faster two-up and scared the shit out of ourselves quite a few times. We also did some long trips on that thing as well, camping and partying along the way.
A couple crashes later, he had to move from his current place so the bike ended up at my parents house and he told me I could ride it whenever I wanted. I didn't even have a motorcycle license, but would take it for spins all the time. Young and stupid maybe, but real good days for sure. That is what lead me to buying the RS which I still have and keeps my M2 company in the garage.
