Looks like the old R69 in that color and pin stripes. Personally I think it still needs spoked wheels. I was debating between that color or the black (both with pin stripes) for a 2022 when my dealer reached out with a great deal on a 2021 First Edition.

Cool hand shifter.

Cool hand shifter.

How does it work?

I think your can look at the picture and get a pretty good idea. It shows the linkage down to the shift lever from the hand shifter.

Yes, but where is the clutch?

Yes, but where is the clutch?

..maybe a foot clutch using the original toe shifter?

..maybe a foot clutch using the original toe shifter?

That is the common way when changing to a hand shift. I set up a bike that way a few years back and ran the clutch cable to the left foot control and set up a hand shift. There is a learning curve to that, lol.

I was thinking about having wings similar to this painted on my R-18 classic tank. Was thinking the front part of the wing would be BMW rondel blue, slowly fading to gray, then fading to white at the wing tips. Probably with some substantial silver flake in paint as well. What do you y'all think? If you were going to do wings on your tank, what colors would you pick? Thanks!

Not liking the idea, but not my bike, so do what you will like!
