Hello to all members i am new to the forum. I have just bought a high mileage 1980 R100RT, my first BMW. Has 85k on the clock
I am told that the bike has a charging issue, that is inherent in these models.
The final drive needs 're-conditioning'
and the valves need to be adjusted.
I imagine that there is a solid state, electronic upgrade I can buy to take care of the charging issue
I would also think that with the manual I can adjust the valves, hopefully take care of the drive as well .
Any advice at this stage would be greatly appreciated , thanks for any input and all the best , regards Steve Heaney
