BMW R-Series description

'75 R75/6 in excellent condition.  S/N 4940796. I am second owner. First owner purchased it new and put a lot of miles on it.I ride it frequently.  Currently about 97,800 miles on the clock.  Engine re-build in 2006 at 85,000 miles by none other than Oak Okleshen (tech guy for the Airhead's Club) in Illinois. I have receipts. Recent seat replacement. New cables. Burns no oil. No oil leaks. Tires are excellent, new battery, new original paint color done professionally about three years ago. After-market windscreen I installed myself (struts weren't quite long enough, I epoxied them). Both stopcocks replaced several years ago. Shocks replaced several years ago. Both the tach and the clock have been checked and refurbished last year. This bike always serviced to the minute, stored in heated, enclosed garage, concrete floor. Anything this bike needed it got. I ride this bike back & forth to work all the time. It was checked over recently by the one guy at my local BMW dealer that works on these old bikes, pronounced AOK, no safety issues, no impending big repair or maintenance work.

Dent in underside of rider's left muffler (see photo) was there when I bought the bike. I never noticed it till recently. Muffler intact. I never got around to replacing the muffler. 

I am getting older and I ride less, so time to thin the herd in my back garage. I have several other vintage bikes.
