I just purchased a new ride as my daily and long haul bike so the RT is looking for a new home. This bike has been my rider for the past 3 years now and I wouldn't hesitate to take it anywhere. Its in very good condition for its age,it looks to have always been garage kept as the paint and plastics are not sun faded at all. It does have about a 2in crack in the fairing caused by strap breaking on my trailer and it fell on the trailer railing. I'd like to keep but I honestly cant afford the insurance and tags on 3 bikes plus with my 2 non running project bikes I'm getting very close to crazy bike hoarder territory!? I have plenty of good pictures showing all angles of the bike that I can email to anyone who is interested.

Message-ID: I visited the Jim Hopkins Museum in Clarksville, MD again this weekend along with several former employees of Butler & Smith and BMW/NA, see http://www.hopkinsbmwmuseum.com/ I learned and saw a lot. It is an extraordinary museum which, since I last saw it, Jim has expanded greatly both with more space (it is attached to his home) as well as far more personal memorabilia, race awards, pictures, leathers, and so much more, from the people who were intimately involved with BMW motorcycles from the very beginning to the present. So for instance, he has a 1927 BMW in original condition, the fastest BMW motorcycle ever, an S1000RR, the helmet and leathers Reg Pridmore wore when he won the Superbike Championship in 1976, race trophies and awards, original pictures, etc., the list just goes on and on, from the very beginning to the present. It is likely the best museum in the world that concentrates on the people of BMW motorcycling, their awards, pictures, etc., it should be on your bucket list. I had a headache by the time I left :-) A GOOD thing this time. So Rob Price, if you want to pursue a trip there, I would be happy to coordinate with Jim to have such a visit. >From my home in Glenmoore, it is about 110 miles to Jim's house in Clarksville, MD, BUT that is taking the most direct route which is down 95 past and through Baltimore, a VERY heavily travelled route, so first heading westward, then south would be longer, but far less onerous.

I visited the Jim Hopkins Museum in Clarksville, MD again this weekend along with several former employees of Butler & Smith and BMW/NA, see http://www.hopkinsbmwmuseum.com/ I learned and saw a lot. It is an extraordinary museum which, since I last saw it,? Jim has expanded greatly both with more space (it is attached to his home) as well as far more personal memorabilia, race awards, pictures, leathers, and so much more, from the people who were intimately involved with BMW motorcycles from the very beginning to the present. So for instance, he has a 1927 BMW in original condition, the fastest BMW motorcycle ever, an S1000RR, the helmet and leathers Reg Pridmore wore when he won the Superbike Championship in 1976, race trophies and awards, original pictures, etc., the list just goes on and on, from the very beginning to the present. It is likely the best museum in the world that concentrates on the people of BMW motorcycling, their awards, pictures, etc., it should be on your bucket list. I had a headache by the time I left :-)?? A GOOD thing this time. So Rob Price, if you want to pursue a trip there, I would be happy to coordinate with Jim to have such a visit. From my home in Glenmoore, it is about 110 miles to Jim's house in Clarksville, MD, BUT that is taking the most direct route which is down 95 past and through Baltimore, a VERY heavily travelled route, so first heading westward, then south would be longer, but far less onerous.

This year's tech weekend extended into three evenings for some attendees who showed up Thursday evening and could have pushed to four if Jim McKinna hadn't scheduled a delivery of materials to his 'last job'... For those of you who have been to Dale and Carol's tech weekend, you understand that this tech day is unlike others. The core group of attendees and smaller scale makes one feel as thought they are attending an annual reunion where you know everyone and are really interested in what they've been up to the past year... The workload was lighter this year with only one major project on the bench. John Eckenrode came in either Thursday or Friday with a post 82(or is it an 83?) R100RS for a rear main seal job and rear disk brake sort out... The bike was on the lift Friday with many eager hands ready to tear it down, and that's just what happened. Jim McKinna, Dale, Peter Gruner, John and others got into it pretty quickly and even gave me a call regarding removal of the clutch carrier mid day. I didn't have an answer and they figured it out before I could find additional information on the internet. That call prompted some thinking about how my work life balance has been a little off-off kilter and how I might work to realign a few things... I had hoped to be there for most of the weekend and was initially planning a Thursday arrival as well to rebuild my spare transmission, but alas it was not in the cards... I thought I might get out of work and on the road by 2:00, but the timing slowly slipped away until I was firing up the bike just before 6:00PM. What irked me most about leaving at this time was that I had to blow-off Craig Barnhart who I had initially planned to meet in Frederick for a leisurely ride down there. No matter though regarding the departure time... it was the second longest day of the year and with only slight rain at the time, so I figured I'd easily make the 140 miles by dark. It was not meant to be... First, I wasn't riding my R80. I was on the 223cc single dual sport, which in itself is a pretty fun little motorcycle, but not one meant for swallowing huge sections of asphalt between stops... probably something to do with the 1.5 gallon tank, 50/50 knobby tires, maximum speed of approximately 65mph on generally flat terrain, and poor excuse for a headlight. Jim McKinna's comment about a 6v lantern is pretty accurate! That and more rain than I can remember riding through since Chris Kennedy, Sean Hembree, and I rode to the Gathering of the Clans Rally in 2012 and the 2014 Rolling Rally return trip from WV with Eric Zwicky and others. Parts of the 522 outside of Culpeper had six or seven inches of standing rain in low lying areas! Most cars were rolling slow with flashers on. I thought of the whole thing as one giant stream crossing and rolled through these areas at relative speed. It was hoot except for the low visibility! After four hours I pulled in soaked to bone and ready for a entirely different kind of dark and stormy. Lucky for me David Hamburger was present and I was with drink immediately. I was so cold and wet, for a brief moment I thought a hot beer might be a good idea... After the initial hellos and drink in hand, I was a little surprised to see people still working actively on John's bike. It was 10:00PM and these guys were on a mission. Apparently the rear main seal was not fully seated and when the bike was reassembled the motor failed to turn. Of course, we didn't know what the cause was at this point, so a second tear down ensued and was completed in record time. That's when we found the main seal protruding just enough... Wrenches were put down at midnight and picked up bright and early the next day. The bike was put back together, in the morning and some serious work was done to revive the rear disk brake system. Turned out there was an air pocket beneath the rear MC that once removed freed the system to work as well as it ever did- which still leaves much to be desired! John test rode the bike and then it was ridden home! Eric Zwicky pulled his bike in the garage Saturday as well for a KatDash install (note to self and others- always inspect the instrument cluster to be certain no debris slips past the speedometer and odometer as we found a small piece of something trapped under the instrument face once it was fully assembled and on it's way back onto the bike) and a front MC brake fluid replacement. Most airheads keep their bikes in top condition, so there was relatively little work to be done in the middle of the riding season. Offers were made for valve and timing adjustments, but there were no takers... The hospitality Dale and Carol extend is warm and welcoming. The food is always good. John Eckenrode provided venison for burgers and some backstrap which was excellent. During our lunch conversation he indicated that he might have to take another deer this fall in support of the tech weekend. Good idea John.. A few highlights for me from conversations that are now a part of the lexicon of the group's inside jokes include- Good... but NOT too good... your's truly Clean... but NOT too clean... Craig Barnhart (referencing his desire to not have the vapor honing of his project bike's case parts outshine the rest of his restoration) and We CAN DO patina... Dale Simpson! We are absolutely getting shirts made. David's documentary on his trip to the UK and tour as a young man was masterful and so inspiring. Most people were packed and heading out before noon Sunday, with some folks up and gone much earlier. There was a threat of rain coming from WV, and I didn't have a lot interest in riding back in the rain... Craig and I headed out of Culpeper together and met up with Florida Airheads Kim and Ricci riding K bikes on a long tour at a local gas station. We had met them last summer at the 25th Gathering of the Clans Rally. I remembered Kim- greying hair in a ponytail with a beard... hardly an identifier in the airhead community... They said they would be at the RA, so we figure we'll see them there in less than a month. We continued north on 522 to Front Royal, picked up 340 through Harper's Ferry, then caught RT 17 north to RT 77 and then east to Westminster. The last 25 miles had me nearly cursing aloud at not having the airhead back together. 340 plus miles on a 223cc bike was almost too much for a two day weekend... Dale mentioned that he and Carol will keep doing the tech day as long as people are willing to show up for it. They are wonderful people and put on a great weekend- and the added bonus is that not only does Dale have everything you need to put a bike together... he knows how to do it too... I've said it before and I'll say it again. It's one of my favorite weekends of the year and I plan on being there next year. If you didn't make it this year, make your calendars for next June. I set up a folder for this year's Summer Solstice Tech Weekend. Feel free to drop photos for all to see. And lastly- the pig roast is this Saturday June 30th. Would be good to see you folks there... We are leaving for the RA Wednesday evening July 18. I will be on my airhead. The thought of a thousand mile weekend on the enduro is enough to give anyone night terrors... Hope to see you all on somewhere on the road...

I agree. My current house/parking pad can only handle a dozen bikes at best but we've had ~40 people over for BBQ with no problems. No real space for tech stuff unless it's under a shade structure on the parking pad. I'm in Forest Hills, PA, just east of Pittsburgh, in the old Westinghouse suburbs off Bevington. -- J.

I enjoyed this event more than any other we have had here because of the length of time I was able to spend with some of you. My apologies to Jim, Eric and Will for failing to deliver sunshine on Friday for you to ride. Using here as a base is something I hope will continue in the future. Waiting for Will to show up Friday night was a bit nerve racking but when he pulled in around 2200 with a candle for a headlight we all felt better. Saturday morning brought another surprise with Chris showing up. I thought Chris's sons bachelor party would have prevented that. Another surprise was my pal halftrac who I worked with 30 years ago at the LOC stopping by. Big thanks to Mike for manning the grill and John for filling it with venison. Davids presentation Saturday night will be impossible to top until he makes another one about the people he met in Europe in 65. I'm sure I have forgotten someone or something but rest assured I appreciate everyone and everything that went into making SSTW run as well as it did. Our door is always open to anyone passing through the area. From the entire staff here at The Dovetail Resort Spa and Conference Center we thank you for coming and hope you will be back next year the weekend after fathers day D/C From drbeemer73 at gmail.com Wed Jun 27 10:16:27 2018 From: drbeemer73 at gmail.com (Mac Kirkpatrick) Date: Wed, 27 Jun 2018 10:16:27 -0400 Subject: [PAAirheads] Date For Jim Hopkins Museum Visit? Aug 25 Maybe? Message-ID: Rob Price and I have looked at various dates for the visit to the Jim Hopkins Museum in Clarksville, MD, see http://www.hopkinsbmwmuseum.com/ and have tried to avoid Airhead tech days, the MOA rally date, wedding conflicts, etc. Aug 25, a Saturday, is our best *guess* for a date so far, BUT we first want to throw that date out to all PA Airheads to see if anyone else can see a conflict with Aug 25. SO please reply if you see Aug 25 as a date with a conflict. We want as many folks to be able to attend as possible. THEN, IF that date works for you guys, I will contact Jim and see if Aug 25 works as a date for a visit to his museum. Over........ Thanks!
