One Wheel Drive: The 1982 R100T Project

Behold pictures below of the latest motorcycle project: a R100T with 77k miles on the odometer. She appears to be a good, solid platform for an enlightening winter project. My current line of thinking is to repair all mechanical issues and along the way, take her in the general direction of a "cafe racer" and/or a "bobber" combination. In my initial inspection while buying her, I noticed a lot of deferred maintenance, so I'm going to have to start there and as my budget allows, get into the customization I have in mind. The mechanical "must do's" include all of the following:

Rebuild Carburetors (pics) - DONE
Have transmission rebuilt (pics). - DONE
Adjust Valves & Inspect Valve Head Thickness (BMW had exhaust valve issues on this model year) DONE.
Rebuild throttle cam and replace throttle cables - DONE
Overhaul choke system and repair as necessary - DONE
Install a kick stand. Original stand is missing, PO removed it - DONE
Remove, inspect and repair exhaust system. It is very corroded and rusty so I assume it will not be complete once I remove it. DONE
Repair Battery Acid Erosion (pics) DONE
New fluids for motor, tranny, final drive - DONE

Customizations I have in mind include:

Remove "smog" or "secondary air system." This will clean up some of the clutter around motor. DONE (I will post pics soon)
Correct the current "ride off" center stand (an aftermarket stand popular in the era, but it is currently difficult to use and the bike seems to want to tip over). - DONE
Polish wheels - DONE
Change bars to "club man" style or straight "drag bars" - DONE
Look for a small faring - Not Started
Repair the whiskey tango holes left over on the rear cowl from the previous owner's aftermarket luggage rack - DONE
Replace the seat with something more appealing - DONE
Remove stock mirrors and replace with bar end mirrors - DONE

Here are some pictures from the first day I owned her. I think you can click on these to enlarge. Further down, I'll give some examples of the general direction I want to take her....
