BMW R-Series description

Offered for sale is this 1969 BMW R60US. This machine was found along with 3 others, stored away in a basement since the early 1980s. This particular bike was parked some time around 1978, according to the last inspection sticker. The bike is still in original paint, and most all of it is in excellent condition. There are some marks on the frame downtubes that indicate that a fairing or crash bars were mounted at some point, but I'm sure that this could be touched up.  

The engine, frame & frame ID tag all have a matching vin, and there is also a clear matching number title for the new owner to transfer into their name. I have not attempted to start the bike, but I have kicked it over and shifted it through the gears, and everything seems to be working correctly. This bike features the optional aluminum Weinmann rims. The gas tank is also mint inside. There are no broken fins on the cylinders or heads, and the valve covers are also mint.

Back in August a similar R60US with a sport tank and very tired paint sold for $8,000, so here is your chance to get a very clean bike at a decent price. 

Please ask all questions prior to bidding. Remember that a purchase is not an option for first refusal while you think about it or see if you have the money - make sure that you have lined up your funds before bidding. Payment in full must be received within 7 days of auction end, and the bike must be picked up/shipped within 30 days of auction end (flexible - but let me know what you have in mind before bidding, please). Overseas sales are fine, but I cannot help with shipping quotes. Paypal accepted for payment ONLY if using the Friends & Family option, which has no fees on either end if paying from a bank account or Paypal balance. Good luck!
