BMW R-Series description

I have an original condition BMW R60/5. I honed the cylinders, put new rings and gaskets in it, cleaned the carbs, and it fired up. The seat is original and the original tire pump is even there! New battery, original tires that are rotted, but still hold air. The horn button on the left handlebar needs repair, and the headlight reflector and socket are missing. It came with a front crash bar and rear luggage rack, both of which I will throw in. The right petcock stem needs replacing. Most of the chrome is rough, but it might clean up. But it is pitted. The bike has been out of the DMV system for 25 years, so there will be no back fees. I have a bill of sale, no title.

French Moto Website Anticipates Versys 1000 at EICMA 2011

Mon, 24 Oct 2011

Musings of a liter-size engined Kawasaki Versys have circulated the web for a few years now, as loyalists of the likable Versys 650, as well as displacement-driven riders waiting in the wings, have pondered the potential of a more powerful adventure bike from Kawasaki that’s in the same league as BMW’s R1200GS and Yamaha’s Super Tenere. Alas, nothing of the sort has ever left the lips of Kawasaki, let alone go into production. Recently, however, the French motorcycle website, Moto-net.com, has produced convincing images that appear like photos of a complete Versys 1000, including matching hard luggage.
