Enjoy your classic BMW!
B.t.w. there is a nice book out from Andy Schwietzer about klassik Boxers from /5 on.In german as also english.A second book is coming soon about classic boxers with monolever from R80G/S until the last ones in 1996...
Interesting read with nice pictures and stories/interviews with the men that designed these bikes...

Here is one of the coolest bikes I ever saw, cosmetically not good, but on close inspection everything was sorted, new cables fresh gaskets etc:
This is a look I'm aiming to perfect with my S
Only without the stick & skull cap
