I need to change some bearings on my 1987 BMW R-80
Head stock and driveshaft bearings need a special tool to remove the inner bearing ring. Who can help me with that ?

At least on the headstock, you can tap out the race (what you've called an "inner bearing ring") with a long punch. Use light taps, move the punch around the circumference of the race. Gradually increase the force applied to the punch.
You should be able to find lots of internet help on this one-airheads have some of the most devoted following in motorcycledom. Max BMW also has microfiche available to see if there are any BMW specialty tools. Google on "Max BMW microfiche" and you should find them quickly.

If you don't have it already, be sure to grab a copy of the shop manual before you do anything with the driveshaft on the beemer. You will absolutely want to get it back together correctly :)
