I just bought a 1978 R80/7 literally stored in a barn and not ridden since 1993. It is complete with dealer installed Luftmeister fairing, owners manuals, tool kit, hand pump etc. Unfortunately, it was stored with the Bing carburetors off and the ports to the heads open and exposed. It is poorly painted red although I don't think red was available for this model and year. See attached photo. This is my first airhead and first restoration.
Anything remarkable I should know about this bike?
I know this forum is a great source of help but what other resources should I use in this restoration effort?
Thanks in advance!
