    From The Land of Sky Blue Waters and Minnesota Nice

    Hey, boys and girls!

    My name is Noah Nelson! I hail from the snowy, barren land that is Minnesota. Every two or three years, we get a week or two (if we're lucky) of 70º+ weather. So, we all thaw out and call it summer. During one of these rare heat spells, I got stupid and bought myself a motorcycle. An opportunity came up with a friend of mine to work out a deal to trade my 1986 BMW 535i (pictured below) for his '79 GS750 (plus some other fiscal compensation).



    So, when I got it, it was modified quite a bit aesthetically.





    However, mechanically and electrically, it's quite a bit of love . . . So, I took it apart.



    Painted the tank and headlight bucket. And put it back together to see how it looks.



    Am pleased.

    Anyways, she's close to road worthy. Til then, I have these to drive.









    I'll stop bragging now. Have a nice day!

    -Noah

        The title of your post reminds me of the old Hamms television ads.
        and God said, "Let there be air compressors!"
