BMW r75/5 description

1973 BMW R75/5 custom motorcycle. Frame powder coated, lowered front end, good tires, 900cc engine kit, heads were rebuilt. Engine has approx. 2000 miles on it since top end re-build. Custom seat and mount, rear shocks. Rims are in good shape. Kick start only. Have re-pro coffee can taillight (not installed but wiring is all there). Wasn't sure if that was the light I was going to go with. Local bike show winner.

Has sat for over a year and now has an oil leak from gasket at driveshaft and tranny shift shaft. Fuel tap leaked and messed up paint on bottom part of tank. Smokes slightly when I rode it the other day when you get on the throttle, might have just been from sitting.
