Right where do I start, I have many years ago had a Honda 90 to commute, that`s the limit of my motor cycle experience, my brother in laws are lifetime bikers and both have offered to get me on 2 wheels , to which one has given me a BMW 650GS, its in bits as it was acquired as a project ,the previous owner had dismantled it to build a café racer, Q are these bikes easy to work on? I am a maintenance engineer so have some skills.
Assuming I manage to rebuild it and get an MOT, as a beginner how likely am I to kill myself? I am 65!!!!!! so wont bounce very well, I realise that I will have to have lessons--I drive a car etc etc .
All advice and shared experience welcome,
cheers
