BMW R-Series tech info
BMW R-Series description
Take a look at the pictures. This motorcycle looks and runs good.
It has good alloy rims and tires are good.
The exhaust is good with correct mufflers.
The numbers all match and it has a valid title.
It has a Denfield seat with a crack in the rubber. Included with this sale is an additional bench seat.
The sheet metal is all straight - no rust.
There’s some pitting on the chrome on the handle bars and push rod tubes on one side.
Air tubes are good.
Foot peg rubbers are good.
Inside the gas tank is not rusty. I do not have the key to the side tool box - may or may not have anything in it.
The electrics all work as they should, including the generator.
Engine starts and runs smooth.
The clutch works fine.
The transmission works fine.
It has 11/35 rear drive with S (solo) stamp on transmission.
Black paint is probably original, stripes are probably not.
This 58 year old antique motorcycle has dings and scuffs and scratches as you would expect from an unrestored classic.
The high and low beam switch is aftermarket, and works.
The pet cock is a later issue BMW part.
The hand grips are not original, but much more comfortable.
This motorcycle is for sale locally, and I reserve the right to end the eBay sale early.
Buyer is responsible for shipping/pick up. I prefer local pick up, but will work with seller on possible delivery/shipping. A non-refundable PayPal deposit of $500 is due within 24 hours. Balance in cashier’s check or cash is due upon pick-up within 7 days or special arrangement.
If you have any questions drop me a line or if you would like more pictures, forward your e-mail address to zimzop.
Bid to buy, bid to restore, bid to ride, or bid to invest - the value has no place to go but up! You’re gonna love this motorcycle....

WSBK 2012: Assen Results
Mon, 23 Apr 2012The Netherlands hosted a dramatic weekend of World Superbike racing that featured a red-flagged wet race, several riders crashing while leading, a first-time race winner, a photo finish between two teammates and the reigning World Champion finishing out of the points because of a poor choice of tires. The 2011 WSBK Champion Carlos Checa arrived at Assen with the lead in the championship and a three-race winning streak, but opting to run wet tires in Race Two cost him the lead and may have contributed to a crash that severely injured Liberty Racing‘s Brett McCormick.

Wed, 14 Mar 2012That scraping sound you can hear is a mixture of a knee slider and the GoPro camera housing grazing the tarmac at Mugello. The footage was shot on-board the BMW Motorrad France Team Thevent machine ridden by Hugo Marchand, in testing ahead of the 2012 Endurance World Championship. He managed to wreck the housing that holds the GoPro camera after only three laps.
