This is my first BMW motorcycle and I started out planning on changing the fluids and control cables. I'd then ride the bike a few months and get a better idea of what it really needed. After starting the work it quickly escalated into what the heck I'll just dive in to it.
I'll post links to photobucket to show the progress. This is also a first so I'm sure there'll be a few mistakes. I'm also sure someone from this friendly audience will let me know! The current link showing the start of the teardown is below. Let me know what you think.
My current question:
1. I wasn't planning on opening the engine. The odometer has 40k on it and it seemed to run well the 50 miles I drove it. I am replacing external seals. While I have it torn down is there anythin in the engine I should address?
