BMW R-Series description
|
Offered for sale is this extremely early first year R80GS. The GS series of bikes has turned into the most important post-war model for BMW, and the first generation GS bikes are on fire with collectors. This is a first year example, and it is number 33 made. When you figure that about a dozen machines were held back by BMW for long term road tests loaners, press bikes and service school training, this is one of the very first machines available for retail sale. This bike is all matching numbers, and comes with a clear Virginia title in my name, ready to sign over to the new owner.
Other than the speedo which has been swapped out for a tach, the bike is in very original condition. The original Zeuna exhaust system is still in place, and even the header pipes - which are often beat up - are in near mint condition on this bike. It still has the original date-code-correct AKRONT 21" front rim. Also included are the tool roll and an original 1981 GS owners manual. The bike is not currently running, but it kicks over just fine with the kick start pedal. As you can see from the photos, this machine was used and enjoyed the way it was meant to be - and now it deserves to be lovingly restored, and to take its place of honor in someone's collection. I've seen mint restored first year GS's sell up near the $20k mark, so here is your chance to get a very desirable machine, to restore it, and to still have lots of room left in your budget over what you might pay for another bike. Please ask all questions before bidding, and have your finances lined up too. Payment in full must be received within 7 days of auction end, and the bike must be picked up/shipped within one month of auction end. I have some flexibility here, but if you need to store for more than one month, email me before you bid and let me know what you have in mind. The bike will not ship before the funds arrive, or in the case of personal checks, until the funds clear. Overseas sales are fine, but I cannot help with any shipping estimates. PayPal payment accepted ONLY if sent via Friends & Family option, which has no fees on either end if coming from a bank account or PayPal balance. Good luck! |

MO Tested: REV'IT! Lamina GTX Ladies Jacket and Pants Review
Mon, 28 Oct 2024The Four-Season set put to the test on the Al-Can Highway There’s no getting away with half-assed reviews here, so when the Lamina GTX was announced and the kit arrived at my sunny Southern California door, I knew the waterproof Gore-Tex lined adventure suit and I were bound for more than just my local backroads and favorite in-state moto camping destinations. My editor stressed that I really needed to put it through its paces, and what better way to test the REV'IT! Lamina GTX Ladies set than a late-spring multi-stage ride to Anchorage, Alaska and back.
