Hi There!

Does anyone know or recommend anyone in the GTA or close by that can repair BMW boxers? Specifically mine is '72 R75/5 toaster. Aside from general repairs/upgrades I'm looking to have the tank re-finished as there's a dent.

Cheers!

You might want to try Rosey Toes. I know he rides an older BMW. He doesnt work on the newer ones but he will on the older bikes.
 
There is a guy north of Port Hope that only restores old bm's. I was riding past an old garage in the country and there was a small parking lot of bikes he was working on. He does a great job, unfortunately I have no idea how to contact him. Has anyone else ever stumbled across this guy?

He had a side car rig (or two), a K100 I think in orange sunburst and a pile of others. His bike had to have the tank welded because his knees wore through the tank after so many miles (hundreds of thousands).

Al Blanchard. He is at an old school in Osaka. All my airhead friends speak highly of him

Awesome, thanks for that. I didn't really know where I was at the time as I was just wandering around. Apparently his company is Blanchard's Motorcycle Works.
