I like it.. love the look.
comma but
isn't that still the 1 piece drive shaft?  Looks pretty extreme for that, no matter how much I like the swing arm.

This is a real beauty. I heard that the early small block off roaders struggled for rear suspension travel and even damaged the drivetrain with heavy use... I wonder of the builder of this bike has overcome this problem?

What a Gem  :thumb:  The fuel tank reminds me of some of the 70's triumphs. Sure it won't compete with any of the late model Dirt Squirts, but it is unique and very well presented   :drool:

As an old dirt bike guy I want one.  Curious about the u joints too.  BMW's early efforts didn't have unreliable shaft drives.
