BMW R-Series tech info
BMW R-Series description
Complete frame-up restoration by well-regarded Mid-West independent BMW tech ( a good friend of mine who originally planned to keep the bike for himself ) of my 1,000cc matching numbers '77 R100RS. This example is one of the approximately 200-only of first year production 40mm intake/exhaust ( "big pipe" ) 70 HP models ever imported into the US. As far as I know, future RS models reverted to a 38mm configuration producing less HP.
Since I ride the bike regularly ( mileage now approximately 6,300 since restoration ), all maintenance is up-to-date and all "mechanicals" and "electricals" ( including the clock ! ) function properly. Avon Road Rider tires have seen only 2,000 miles. When not ridden, the bike is stored in my RV garage and kept on a battery tender through the installed BMW electrical socket.
The bike's new owner will receive two sets of ignition keys ( one of which is a "folding" key ) / expandable BMW tank bag/correct Krauser panniers with two complete sets of keys which not only lock the bags to the frame but also lock the bags themselves/proper Riders Manual, Technical Data Manual and BMW shop manual. A Brown side stand has also been installed for more convenient ( perhaps safer too ) deployment. Center stand and BMW spring loaded side stand remain on the bike. Sorry, solo seat only!
I will provide assistance with shipping. Please contact me with specific questions but

Spy Video Provides Up-Close Look at 2014 BMW R1200RT/R1200GT
Wed, 17 Apr 2013Last month, we published spy photos of what appeared to be some prototypes of the 2014 BMW R1200RT sport-tourer undergoing testing somewhere in southern France. Unfortunately, the photographs were captured from far away, preventing us from seeing many details apart from the new water-cooled Boxer engine from the new GS and what appears to be the adaptive headlight from the K1600GT and GTL. Thankfully, a new video has surfaced, providing an up-close look at the new R1200RT.
