BMW R-Series description

1980 BMW R100 custom cafe racer. This bike started as a stock bike owned by an older gentleman who commuted on it, and put close to 50,000 miles on it doing so. It was then purchased by a friend who spent thousands in services and customizations by a BMW specialist shop in Georgia. I purchased it from him and gave it a rework of my own style, as well as some added service. Everything on this bike has been gone over and I just replaced all of the engine top end gaskets a few weeks ago. It starts right up and runs beautifully. It has roughly 4,000 miles since the rebuild and most of the recent services.
 
The wheels were just powdercoated gloss black and the Avon tires only have a couple thousand miles on them. This bike has three disc brakes and they have all been rebuilt and have new stainless lines and pads for improved performance. The suspension was just rebuilt and the front end has been internally lowered for a much better look, along with the low clip on handlebars for the real cafe racer feel. There is a gorgeous Motogadget speedometer to keep track of your speed and mileage. The fuel tank has been given a fresh BMW Alpine White paint job, and the racing stripes are decals with can be removed if they are not your style. The tank is topped off with a custom hand machined billet gas cap. The rear subframe is a custom unit and my favorite part of the bike. It has a LED rear tail light and brake light strip on the end of it. The seat is custom made for the bike and covered in red leather with a double stitch diamond pattern. Black billet aluminum rearsets complete the cafe ergonomics. They are a great match with the clip on handlebars.

There is an airbox delete kit on the bike and it has a upgraded lithium ion battery mounted semi-hidden under the seat. The carburetors were fully rebuild and ultrasonically cleaned, along with being rejetted. They are fitted with high performance dirtbike style airfilters for better looks and performance. The exhaust is a custom mounted set of mini mufflers that sound aggressive without being obnoxious, and the rest of the exhaust has been wrapped with high heat header wrap to keep things nice and cool. 

This bike needs absolutely nothing other than a new owner ready to enjoy it! Everywhere this bike goes it forms a crowd. Park it next to a new $30,000 Harley and no one will even notice the other bike. A true cafe racer that is a blast to ride around on! I can assist with shipping both internationally and domestically. Clean Florida title in hand.

New: BMW System 6 Evo helmet

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

BMW has released the new System 6 Evo flip-front helmet.  It retains the clean lines of the System 6, while increasing levels of comfort and practicality with a more scratch-resistant internal sun visor, a more robust visor mechanism designed to make operation with gloved hands easier, improved ventilation control on the chin, and a revised spoiler for better aerodynamics. BMW says it has a unique chin bar pivot which reduces the size of the helmet when the chin bar is upright. Weighing in at 1.57kg, the ECE 22-05 homologated Evo is a quiet lid, with noise levels registering at 84-86 dBA at 62 mph. The helmet comes ready for installation of the BMW Communication system, offering a Bluetooth connection to the BMW Navigator IV sat-nav, music players, mobile phones and other BMW helmets.

Charge Up you iPhone While You Ride

Fri, 12 Feb 2010

Motorcyclists can now enjoy total freedom on the open road confident in the knowledge that their cell phones, GPS, MP3 players and latest generation of iPhone/iTouch devices will remain fully-charged and in-service for the duration of the ride thanks to Powerlet’s plug and play systems. “Our product line was inspired by personal experience and the realization that there were no worthwhile options for clean, reliable on-board power for cell phones, stereos and GPS devices,” says Powerlet Products founder Adam Bonislawaski. “Before we came on to the scene, riders would bust out the black tape and wire strippers and cut into their bike’s fragile wiring to tie-in a cheap cigar lighter to power their devices.
