I can thank my wife for that. She wants to re live her college days in Germany on the back of a "Rubber Cow". Trouble is, I wasn't there so I wonder who's Cow she was riding on?
This has me worried as well: Quote:

1980:
Detuning (leaned) carburetion changes for emissions, with no other changes to make up for it, resulting in a slight performance loss. BMW RA calls the 1980 R65 "the worst BMW ever made."

Of course I just got an "80 :-/

Don't feel lonesome, I have one out in the garage as well.  It survived Suraklyn learning to ride so I s'pose they can't be too bad...
