Title: Hello from Bali, Indonesia
Post by: cargonaut on July 03, 2009, 06:25:38 AM: Hello Everyone,

I just bought a 1981 R65 LS in Ubud, Bali and look forward to restoring it to as close to original as possible. This is my first "old" bike but like in aviation there really is no such thing as an old airplane/bike. It's either a well maintained machine or not.

I've got a bunch to learn about these great bikes so I best get with it. Seems like this site is a good place to start.

See you all around on the web. ;D

Cheers,

Peter Heinrichsohn

I'm thinking of "Beemer Owners Of Bali" aka BOOB.
Welcome to the pen, Cargonaut. Probably see you later this weekend!

And, as the senior BMW member in Bali, you are hereby anointed the Head Boob. I guess Peter, by default, becomes Head Boob, Junior Grade and may serve in your absence.

Congrats and props to all BOOB members [smiley=beerchug.gif]Ride on!
