I just don't know what happened. As soon as I brought it inside, it started falling apart!

Got any parts there you'd like to sell...cheap?
How about a slightly used two-piece crosstube?

Mine did the same thing, must be the weather.
Hmmm. I'm new to this BMW thing. Will my airhead fall apart every fall?![]()
Geez, I don't know, my R 75/5 fell apart even worse than this once it was in my basement.
I have a feeling that this R90/6 has not stopped dropping pieces.
The good news is that so far I'm not finding anything really bad, just a lot of deferred maintenance. Certainly nothing I can't easily put right.![]()
I wasn't planning on going quite that far...
I'm hoping to leave the engine in the frame. As far as I can tell, the engine internals are fine. The bike has only 48k miles on it, so all should be good there.
Plans may change, of course, as I get deeper into it.
