Exceptionally well done--almost as good as Kelly's DIYs-- Back in those days, BMW came in Black with white striping or White with black striping. I agree that it would make a fine marketing film for BMW.

Aside from the dedication in time and energy and sweat and thought and memories, that bike now is probably worth 20 X what it sold for originally. Looks beautiful and probably runs perfectly, a tribute to the son.

The R-50 is, in my opinion one of the best BMWs built. It is really low-so a person with short legs can flatfoot it easily. It was also whisper quiet. Wish I never sold mine.

Agreed, best ad ever! This is why motos are special, different from cars or any other object that could carry on a legacy beyond death.
Reminds me of the norton project:
