BMW All description

1966 R69S BMW
Sharp R69S triple numbers matching. Excellent restoration quality and in top condition today. Beautiful bright chrome, newer tires, professionally polished aluminum. Great running and ride ready to go anywhere. The cosmetics speak for themselves everything is exceptional. The engine runs like new and has excellent compression. I was told the engine was rebuilt by the previous owner but I don't have any documentation to that effect. It runs like new I can say that. The motor has no smoke on start up and while running sounds absolutely normal and healthy with that nice vintage BMW sound. Oil seals are good and bike is dry underneath. I would not be afraid to ride this bike coast to coast and having said that we have a commercial airport nearby so a buyer could fly in and drive out with the bike.
The bike has some wear from saddle bags on the paint. It is light and hard to see but it is there on shock towers. There are a few minor chips in the paint that are also hard to notice. One spot is the earls fork swing arm and another is the top of the fork cover, triple tree top plate. Gas tank and headlight bucket are great nice paint and no dents. I am including a set of chrome passenger foot pegs as I lost one of the foot pegs while riding. Just a great bike. The title states the year of manufacture as 1966.

Own (what could be) a piece of motorcycling history

Mon, 14 Jun 2010

Get bidding for what could be a revolutionary motorcycle, as the advert states all you need is, "a fair wedge of ingenuity" to marry together a BMW K75 and the 1.4 diesel engine from a Citroen AX. Thankfully the seller will be able to help with the project: "I have most of the design lodged firmly in my head, and will be more than happy to provide information." With a starting price of £100 and no bids the diesel project bike only has one day left on eBay
