My 1965 BMW R-27 has one of those "bicycle" pumps as standard fitment. I cannot imagine ever using it.

Looks like two sets of photos: nice driveway and Euro plated car from the previous (European) seller and the FL driveway and carport from the current seller.

I can imagine that. I used to take one with me when touring, to "top up" the tyres of a morning before setting out on another day of riding. Pumping a flat tyre would put me in hospital :shocked:

The speedo's not connected... and, it isn't.

Still very special.
