Not till we know more about the bike, Mister...

Sorry about that. It's a 1973 BMW R75/5 LWB, last of the Mohicans as far as /5s go. It's black, which I prefer to the toaster tank bikes, though I know they're popular.
I bought it sight unseen in Denver about a week ago. I was browsing Search Tempest, (always dangerous), and there it was at a price that I could not pass up. It had gone up an hour before and the first one there was going to own it. I'm stoked, I've owned the exact bike twice before, (20 years ago), and never should have sold the better of the two. They've gone up some.
The latest is that he took it to work to clear the garage space, (said it ran great), I'd still like to get it into a Pelican garage but not sure how I can facilitate that from here. I plan on going to get it this week if possible, maybe a Denver get-together is in order. Lots of cool board members there.
