For sale is a VIN number triple matched, (engine, frame, and tag) 1976 R60/6, VIN: 4925716, with 5816 miles. (YES! fifty eight hundred and sixteen miles)

The bike is NOT running. This is a great project or parts bike. 

 

We got this project bike from a friend who was going to "Cafe'" it at least 10 years ago. According to him, it was running prior to put away. Unfortunately, He didn't dry up the fuel prior to "tuck away" in his basement. Because of that, the inside of the gas tank will need a new lining, both petcocks were shut and carburetors will need a rebuild. We were planning to part it out, but we found it might have a great potential to be running again with little love. We have too many other projects going so we will have to let someone else taking over this project with passion. 

 

This is a "all there" project bike. The gas tank is actually very solid. The engine turns over smoothly with strong compression. Transmission engages each gear clearly. The position of the nuts on the rocker arms and the almost zero free play between final drive and rear wheel hub tells me that this is a low mileage example, "5816" original miles. All the wires are all there, but it will need to clean up because previous owner told us that he was trying to "eliminate" the turn signals.
