With great sadness I forward this message from the PA Airheads.
Many of you will remember Joe for his sessions at SuperTech.

It is with very heavy heart and stream of tears running down my face that I
am writing to tell you  that one of our founders, friends and teachers has
passed.

I got news this morning that Joe Dille passed away last night.

Apparently he was working on his bike in the garage [UTF-8?]??? Patti went out to
check on him and found him.

As we know had a heart issue before the holidays and had a pacemaker
installed [UTF-8?]???

This is all I know at the moment.

I have known Joe for 30 years, as he got me into BMW motorcycles.  He has
been my coworker , teacher, friend , confidant , riding buddy and all
around good guy.

I am devastated.

I will pass on any news I get to the lists as I get it.

If inclined say a prayer or just keep Patty and Joey in your thoughts.

I miss my Friend..

Eric

Greetings Md airheads-
	I am new to this group, Ive been meaning to write, I now have a good excuse.

I am rebuilding a 1981 R100RS- down to frame paint.  
I wasn?t planning on doing extensive engine work, but the guru from afar that I have been consulting with has convinced me to do some preventative maintenance.
I pulled the transmission to do the spline lube and its a mess in there. Oil and grime. 
I now need to pull the clutch/flywheel to get to the oil pump.  I?ll be doing the seals as well.  
Which leads me to this - tools.  I'm not against buying some of them, but they might be offered on loan from members here.  
Other tools I can potentially make, or 3d print, as that?s part of my profession.  The main seal disc with the 5 holes is an example of that. 
I?ll need the flywheel bar, clutch removal tools, clutch centering tool, and something to stop the crank from the rotor end at the front.

If anyone also wants to lean over my shoulder and point with comments - bring it on.

thanks-
Porter Gieske

Hello and welcome Porter!

I am doing the work in Annapolis right now. Happy to help you on the weekends if you need.

I've got a lot of Cycleworks tools that I have lent out to other 
airheads.   right now my timing-chain stuff is out locally, but I do 
have the clutch-centering tool, main-seal tool, flywheel holder, and for 
blocking the crank I just bungee a piece of wood with a bolt mounted in 
the center.    I can send you that stuff if Sailor CTO doesn't have 
everything you need.

Subject: tool loan "program"?
Message-ID: <b77341c5-0e49-722e-26d1-18cd09111e2b@gmail.com>

Hey MD and VA airheads,

Cross-posting here.   I was thinking about a tool database for loaning 
out specialty tools to other Airheads.

Myself, I have a bunch of the Cycleworks tools and maybe some other 
tools that are really seldom-used unless one has multiple airheads. 
Like my timing-chain tools.   I used them only once myself, but a lot of 
other times with other guys' bikes.

I can make a list of what I have available, but I was thinking it might 
be useful for other Airheads if we had some kind of repository, which 
could be looked up by Airheads who might need a special tool for a project.

Let me know if anybody thinks this would be a good idea or even if it 
could be implemented at all, since we just have state-specific email 
lists as opposed to web sites.    Maybe on the national Airheads site 
there could be a database or online searchable list of tools by state?

Anyway, just thinking out loud.

Stay safe and positive (the good kind of positive that is!).

I am happy to put together a Google spreadsheet that can live on the
Maryland Airheads shard drive and include a link to the spreadsheet. People
can list tools they have available for use and contact information. Then
club members can coordinate directly to share, assist, instruct...

Let me know if people are interested in this.

Thanks Wool!

I'll get out to the garage later today and prepare a list.   It's not 
much but hopefully will help other Airheads.

I have some cycleworks tools because of my /5 project bike, and can update
the list as well.
Maybe listing city/town and state would be helpful.

I may be wrong here, but *IF*,    you are a full time abc member, in good
standing ,    there may be a tool loaner program.

many will tell you this site   Ain't the abc.
the abc started long before this site did.

I have a pile of special tools also and I'm 3 hours north from you. We could have tool stashes all over the tri-state area for folks.
I've got everything but the gearbox tools. Tom convinced me to just mail him mine with his gearbox tutorial at a tech day ?

I just buttoned up an engine and hope to not need those tools for a loooong time. I can't wait to see what 11:1 pistons in an airhead feel like ?

Welcome Porter.? ?

Nice to see you doing your own work.

Hopefully you have a small $30 Harbor Freight parts washer that will be of great help.
Suggest you use mineral sprits....aka paint thinner (95%) and old used oil (5%) as your parts washer fluid.
Cheap and very kind to painted parts and other items vs $20--$40/gallon specialized fluids.

Btw........you don't need a flywheel bar to secure the flywheel......a simple 12mm--17mm box & open end wrench will do nicely to lock the flywheel when removing & installing new bolts.
?Nor do yo need anything special to keep the front of the crank in place. Properly sized dense fold of newspaper wrapped in tape between the front cover and alternator bolt works well.?
Lots of hands-on experience in MD. Airheads so you are in good hands.
Also I suggest you join a great Airhead page for more excellent tips, advice, pics and how to vids.??
https://www.facebook.com/groups/139111586681658

This should get you started.? Brook Ream's is super guy with lots of details for the RS.?
https://brook.reams.me/bmw-motorcycle-rebuilds/1983-bmw-r100rs-rebuild-project-index/

Nice bike the RS.? If it has original valves & seats as they have a history of recession and both should be replaced.?

My best....... Mike in Bethesda.?

I'd be in too.? I don't have a lot of specialized tools, but I would gladly add them to the list.? I'd be interested in using them - since I'm planning on doing a bottom end rebuild of my '67 R60/2 this year :)
thanks--pete

Generous and considerate Hedz,

I would be in as well - through fortune and necessity I have accumulated a number of special tools from a number of sources over many years and would also gladly add them to the list.

Most of you may have a lift but it may be of interest to some to have one .
I would be happy to put my lift on the list as it seats unused in my shop
most of the time and there is no bike  work planned anytime soon.
It is an foldable Kendon lift.
Not the perfect solution for all work but very practical for some

Commercial parts washer solvent IS mineral spirits. Just use common sense.
No smoking, grinding, welding, etc around the parts washer. Keep the
fusible link intact. It's there to allow the lid to close in case of
fire... Wear gloves to protect your skin. There's a reason switches and
outlets are not to be lower than 18 inches above the floor. Kerosene cleans
parts pretty good and seems to light up slower than mineral spirits.

or   1/2gal simple green  is  very safe.

Safety is paramount with its use. If the directions call for a non
flammable solvent, I would do so. Please be safe.

Slight veer off tools topic but can anybody recommend a good powder coat shop here in the MD / DC / NoVA area?  I've used EastCoast PowderCoat up in North East, MD for some past work but that's a haul for me.

Greetings Md airheads-
    I am new to this group, Ive been meaning to write, I now have a good excuse.

I am rebuilding a 1981 R100RS- down to frame paint.
I wasn?t planning on doing extensive engine work, but the guru from afar that I have been consulting with has convinced me to do some preventative maintenance.
I pulled the transmission to do the spline lube and its a mess in there. Oil and grime.
I now need to pull the clutch/flywheel to get to the oil pump.  I?ll be doing the seals as well.
Which leads me to this - tools.  I'm not against buying some of them, but they might be offered on loan from members here.

I?d like to start off by saying thank you to the several offers for tools and advice on my rebuild.
I also want to mention that it was not my intention to initiate a tool loan program, which quickly escalated here.  I do believe it is a good idea, as I have seen it work with other groups.
I will watch this space as time goes by to see how it develops, my rebuild is slow due to a cold garage.  
I will be gathering parts and watching the Booke Reams videos, as his bike model matches mine.

many thanks, gents-

Hedz,

We are putting together a list of special tools people own for working on
airheads at the suggestion of the many... Right now I am copying VA, MD,
and PA, but this could obviously expand to include a larger region if
people are interested.

It can live on the shared drive for the Maryland Airheads or anywhere. None
of that matters to me....

For starting purposes, anyone with the following link will be able to add
information to the spreadsheet of tools they have and are willing to share
use of, lend, or otherwise at their discretion among fellow airheads.

Open the link to the shared spreadsheet and add your information. Do not
delete things you have not entered.

Have fun...

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ytVpJ0Na8PiYT7N33tJ1kF3eOhJ1QfGYy2czw3l_XWo/edit?usp=sharing

The list will also be included in the signature line of all emails from
this address for future reference.

All the Best,

There is a good powder coating shop in metropolitan Baltimore. The business is called Powder Coaters and is located at 4401 Fait Avenue, Baltimore, MD.  Their number is 410-675-0743.  When calling ask for Cathy Kundratic.  The Mid Atlantic Bike Museum at the Broom Factory located on Eastern Avenue in East Baltimore used them for a lot of their powder coating work.

Sadly, such is the very common problem with loaning tools.....or a tool loan program.? ?

Even when returned with all the bits, the tools usually take quite a beating because most times the user is a novice and doesn't know much about tool care & attention.

The only way it really works is for one experienced person to take charge and everyone chips in $10--$20 per year to keep tools in good condition & buy new ones as needed.

Then you need to consider what happens when a special tool is no longer being reproduced and it needs replacing?? Bummer.?

Hope they guy is still around and can find the missing bits.?

My best........ Mike

Hi all,

I hope it's OK to post this here.? ? A few years ago I sent my 
CycleWorks engine tool set to a guy in Athens GA.? ? He had it for 
about a year (no problem because I was done with it for the time being), 
and when he sent it back I just put the bag in my tool drawers and 
didn't look at them again.

Recently I gave the bag to a local guy who's rebuilding his /5 and he is 
getting around to the timing chain now, and the tool kit is missing a 
few key pieces.

I've looked through all my folders and sub-folders and can't find the 
email with the guy in Athens.? I think I remember his name but can't 
find the thread that way either, so maybe I am not remembering his name 
correctly.

So if you're reading this, and you're the guy in Athens, would you mind 
getting in touch with me and I can let you know what I am missing?

Thanks in advance,

Eric Zwicky
Richmond VA

   Mike, 

   Very true.  Seldom am I one to be the Devil?s advocate. I recently (last week) experienced similar circumstance.  My neighbor asked to borrow my 4? drywall square.  To which I was happy to oblige.  A week went by, I had to prompt him for the return of the tool.  In the cover of darkness, he dropped it off.  Bent, chipped, scratched.  It has a workbook tread pattern stamped on.   Still functional but not as pleasant to work with as before.  It happens.  While grinding through a workday, some guys are capable of destroying a forged steel cannonball. 

   A minor issue with the prospect of passing around special tools would be their proper identification.  Tools of all sorts are routinely referred to by different names by many people.  Based on verbal description, it might be difficult to be certain the proper tool for a specific task is being forwarded.  Do BMW special tools all carry a part number ?  If so, to include this number as data on the spreadsheet might be helpful.  In other cases, we often craft our own shop made special tool.  These could also be identified by part number and just as easily be passed around.  

  Bill Lambert.

It's sad that some are just not taught to treat things (anything)......with decency and respect.? They simply have no concept.? Everything gets beat-up and they really think this is "normal".? Blows me away.

Hedz,

Ron in PA would like to buy an airhead.  He doesn't see to be particular
about the model.  The language in the letter is odd though, so I'm
not 100% sure this is a legit request, so be alert.  I definately
wouldn't accept a "cashiers" check.  Or, I could just be being too
cynical.

If you can help this person out, please contact HIM, not the list or me.

Thanks,
Bill Dudley

William, my name is Ron from PA. I got your email address off of your BMW club website.  I am looking to buy a BMW cycle from 1973-1983. Like R60,75,90 slash 5/6. Must have turn signals and electric start. I thought with your cycle club you might know someone or dealer that I can call to find 1 of these classic cycles. I am looking for a original not modified, clean no rust, show quality cycle under 20,000 original miles. Call, text or email me back. My cell is 717-991-3143. I am looking to buy ASAP.

Hedz,

A minute ago I forwarded a message from a "Ron Smith" in PA.
I wrote this preamble, but it seems some mail readers won't show my
plain text preamble, only Ron's HTML text.  So I am sending this
message again, because I don't feel really confident that Ron's
message is legit.  Here is the preamble I sent before:

Ron in PA would like to buy an airhead.  He doesn't see to be particular

not 100% sure this is a legit request, so be alert.  I definately

I have looked all over U tube to no avail, so I ask the experts.
Had my tank repainted. Need to put the knee grips back on.?
Is there a slick way to do this? Heat up, get pliable and go for it? Start top or bottom first? Does it matter?
After what I spent to get this tank really nice, I would hate to ding it up.
Any suggestions??
Last, is there a site I can go to other than tying up the Airhead e-mail?
Best to all, stay well.

Walt,

Try soaking in hot boiling water to get very pliable, then apply.
