Abandoned German Motorcycle - Full Classic Restoration

That's not a full restoration. This is what you do if you want to flip the bike for cheap. Why not call it what it is? Instead of a new sub, you now have one more person who puts your channel on the "do not recommend" list. But hey, at least you got my comment to boost the algorithm.

It had a really nice patina, tho.

ROYAL ENFIELD

What did you use for cleaners and paint?

very neat job . truly impressed

I feel happy whem I see those old bikes come to life again...Great restore!!!!

Wouldn't call this a classic bike. Its a modern bike with a starter motor, disk brakes, and rpm gauge.
And it's probably the best example of a period in BMW history (70s) when they produced only ugly bikes.

Stunning, fantastic video thank you

High pressure !!!!! You destroyed all …

I love the look of this bike.
Just the right amount of patina for a cared-for survivor.

Nice job!

Did you rebuild the engine?

Very good job. Thanks

Amazing job and bike. But the seat? Love the old style seats. Great though

Very impressive work and a great bike

👏👏👌

Hello
Bay City Restorations

Nice result. Well done resetting the hideous seat. Presumably the mechanical restoration of engine, carbs, brakes, suspension, etc was done off camera? Would have been great to see that as well. Wonder why not reuse the original front indicators.

Nice to see an old beamer being cared for , shame we did not get to see the engine rebuild, now that would have been worth watching .

What! You didn't replace that swingarm boot that was dry rotted! I've seen those aluminum triple tree things break! What no fork brace! Really need to get one, it makes a big improvement! POP RIVETS! really?

I'd like to see a BSA Goldstar restoration.

Wow, wonderful job!😊

It wasn't a restoration - it was a disassembly and cleaning and assembly of an old BMW - but it had nothing to do with a restoration.

I can’t tell you how pleased I was to see you clean the down before starting work , as you should. It drives me insane to see others pull the machines apart, covered in rust, dirt and oil. Nice work 👍, greetings from AUS.

أحسنت أخي ❤️🇲🇦

No watched it until the end and still didn't like like it , it left me with an horrible feeling inside , the feeling you have when you know your not going to see someone you love ever again !!!! some things are just best left alone.

Honestly I like the bike better in it,s unrestored condition , i would have just made good what needed to be made good, and kept it scruffy , everybody are restoring old BMW into bobbers, flat tracker, or keep them original but turning them into show ponies, the ageing of the bike before you started work on it was priceless but know it,s just the same as any other BMW, sorry just had to say)))

junp that fence this time!

Hey Mate nicely done, i couldn't quite see how you cleaned up the motor, did you spray paint it silver?

Amazing work! I believe one of the greatest things someone can do is to take a vehicle that is only and distraught and make it like new again! It’s a talent given by God himself. Fantastic video! Very well done.

Amazing

It took a lot of work, but the result is great. It would be useful to check the compression pressure of the cylinders so that Internet users can see the full professionalization of the renewal. Congratulations!

Rescued :-) thanks god for entusiasts. Well done

Excellent Restoration Work. I would like a video of Old Abandoned Honda/Yamaha/Suzuki motorcycle
.

Hope your catching that soap and cleaner befor it goes down the drain

BMW R80/7

Nice!! I enjoyed watching! Inspirational too!

Badass!!!

Absolutely Beautiful!!

This is an 800cc BMW Motorbike. From a speed standpoint, most 650cc Japanese motorcycles, like the Yamahas or Suzuki's would win. But, from a Class Standpoint, the R800cc BMW Motorbike is hard to beat for smoothness and reliability. 🤠

Excelente restauración hermosa moto felicitaciones desde frontera santa fe argentina un abrazo

the R80 is worth doing, the R45 and R65 are just rubbish

Very nicely done, this is the sort of bike I would buy “as is” and use as my daily rider.. 🙂

Halp mi

Beautiful job. Looks effortless with you doing it. I know it probably took a full week. Great job

Very nice restoration. Thanks for taking us along.

I had a '72 R50/5. Good little bike. Easy to work on. Simple to clean. But too slow on the freeway. Had a hard time getting to 70-75. So, I traded it in on a 2005 K1200LT. Barish Motor Worken. Designed and Built by riders for riders. Nice restoration. Compliments to you.

I had the 900/. Was a bit ropey but classic. Ended up with a K75’RT . Full faring ABS . Did 25k without a single problem. But at 33k oil pump and water pump on same shaft lost a seal. Engine rebuild etc. then it went for another 25k loved that bike saved my life many times as a London courier. Ps my 900/flat twin still under tarps. Maybe a project
