a Frankenbike.

so, the engine is a 1974 bmw r90/6. that was the last year for a kick start on the left side. but the frame is a 1975 r75 and the tank is an older /5 of some sort. it’s got san jose pieces on it: fork stiffener, clamp on the triple tree; reinforced swingarm. it’s got a clear title, but it’s listed as a 1976. numbers don’t match. but i don’t really care. it runs like it’s brand new.

5000+!

To all of our ticket holders: THANK YOU! We’ve crossed the 5000 tickets sold milestone! And the show is still over 6 months away. But ticket prices will go up, and as you can see, after the last few mezzanine seats are sold at the Sunday matinee, only Grand Tier and Upper Tier seats remain. Because students are often the most strapped for money, and not always the first to buy tickets, we’re calling on al
