BMW R-Series description
1970 numbers matching BMW R75/5 with the desirable short wheel base. This bike has been fully rebuilt and is ready to go!! I received this bike in boxes after it had only seen 14k miles and rebuilt, renewed or replaced every part. The engine was rebuilt professionally by Bancroft Motorcycle Works in Ohio along with the rear end. New rings,clutch, timing chain and all the gaskets/seals were replaced. A 280w charging system was added to up the juice over the stock 100w. The speedo was sent to Overseas speedo and rebuilt leaving the original miles intact I added led bulbs so that those difficult lights will NEVER have to be changed again. The frame was stripped and powder-coated in gloss black along with the swingarm, rear springs and the Reynolds ride off stand. The paint is BMW /2 Dover White with hand applied correct pin striping on a /6 sport tank that really looks great. The seat is new and comfortable. The forks were rebuilt to as new condition with new seals and gaiters. New wiring, cables, bolts, bulbs and all the rubber bits were replaced. The brakes were rebuilt and work great. tires are new Metzlers with less than 900 miles on them along with natural rubber tubes The carbs were rebuilt and tuned at Bancroft Motorcycle Works; this bike hums! I added period correct Albert headlight mirrors and a /2 sidecar handlebar for a more relaxed cafe look; you can ride all day and look cool doing it!! The only "cons" on this bike are a couple paint blemishes less than the size of a quarter and some gas staining on the carbs. This bike doesn't leak a drop, starts right up, runs smooth, stops great and is as cool as the other side of the pillow. This bike has less than 900 miles since being finished and all of the break in maintenance is done; all of the bugs are worked out and she is ready to ride across the country or the next bike night. I am still riding this bike so the mileage will change. This was going to be my "forever" bike and I built it that way. Life has other plans and the time has come for me to move on but she is ready to go to a good home where she will be appreciated. I am willing to help with shipping (within reason) and will deliver the bike up to 500 miles for $1.00/mile loaded. If you are interested I could swap the tank for a toaster or even a stock large 5 gal tank (both would need to be painted and therefore would take a little time to complete) Please don't bid unless you plan to buy!!

Around the world on a Multistrada
Tue, 07 Jun 2011Ever since Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman rode their BMW’s around the world it seems anyone with a ‘GS’ has an open ticket to ride around the world and then write about it. And fair enough, if I could afford the bike and the trip then I’d be gone as well. Obviously, BMW reaped the rewards when Ewan and Charlie showcased what their GS could really do, changing BMW’s image from solid but stuffy, to solid and cool overnight.
Lamborghini Plows Into BMW Motorcycle Dealership
Tue, 10 Jul 2012Pictured here is the carnage left behind after a driver lost control of a Lamborghini Murciélago and plowed through a row of motorcycles parked outside a BMW dealership in Mariano Comense, a town north of Milan, Italy. According to Italian site InFullGear, the driver veered into the oncoming lane while approaching a curve before losing control and running into the parked motorcycles before bouncing off and coming to a stop in the middle of the road. The crash injured three people, though thankfully none of them were seriously injured.
BMW introduced the production version of the CE 04 electric scooter
Thu, 08 Jul 2021The BMW CE 04 stands out from the crowd primarily for its futuristic appearance, which clearly echoes the previously demonstrated concept. In general, this is no longer a classic scooter, on which an electric motor and a battery were screwed instead of an engine, but a device that was built taking into account all the advantages of an "electric" design.
