Hi all  I have taken quite a few photos of this early unrestored R12 and will send them in several following emails.  This is what BMW said:  The BMW...
Athony, the key belongs to the earliest postwar plunger-frame series of BMW. I could imagine, the original was worn already and the replacement worked better....
I see you have the Battery ignition and not the magneto.. any chance you could show me how the coil is mounted cheers Peter ... From: Anthony Evans To:...
 Man that is one nice ariginal r12. My r12 is frame #625 and the engine is a larger number but came out a couple months later in 35. But my bike as far as I...
Hi Peter  I will take the pics tomorrow for you-no problem. The original coil is still working. How far dare I ride it?!!! Anthony ... From: Peter Gibbs...
Hi Ted  I hope this helps you. Some witness lines remain where the camera doesn't show it, but this is about the limit for the camera I have.  All lines...
Hi Ted  The paint used is a white enamel-again, this looks better than other paint types and it was reasonably (not too much) thick in the application.  ...
Ant. if you are worried about the coil you could put a new one in it along with a new condenser, with the correct rating of course...but the old one should...
Anthony, I have two original coils that were used on the R35 as well. Both are good and I have no problem using them as I haven't been able to locate anything...

Anthony, So what did you pay for such a nice little Gem? I am sure as myself and others are blown away by the pics Dietmar is just drooling.... Mike Dunn...
Hi Peter  Hope this is clear. The second picture isn't great due to bright light and old camera, but it only shows the 2 nuts on the inside of the frame. All...
Anthony, If you dont have a flickr account it might be a wise investment? You can place all of the pics on there and everyone can look at them and expand them...
Hi Dietmar  Thanks for your kind words, along with thanks to everyone else.  I have put on an original pre-war Berlin plate (not original to this...
Mike  A good idea! What is the link to get one set up?  I will put them all on there. How many images can go on there?  Anthony ... From: Mike Dunn...
