BMW R-Series description
Take a look at the pictures. This motorcycle looks and runs good.
It has good alloy rims and tires are good.
The exhaust is good with correct mufflers.
The numbers all match and it has a valid title.
It has a Denfield seat with a crack in the rubber. Included with this sale is an additional bench seat.
The sheet metal is all straight - no rust.
There’s some pitting on the chrome on the handle bars and push rod tubes on one side.
Air tubes are good.
Foot peg rubbers are good.
Inside the gas tank is not rusty. I do not have the key to the side tool box - may or may not have anything in it.
The electrics all work as they should, including the generator.
Engine starts and runs smooth.
The clutch works fine.
The transmission works fine.
It has 11/35 rear drive with S (solo) stamp on transmission.
Black paint is probably original, stripes are probably not.
This 58 year old antique motorcycle has dings and scuffs and scratches as you would expect from an unrestored classic.
The high and low beam switch is aftermarket, and works.
The pet cock is a later issue BMW part.
The hand grips are not original, but much more comfortable.
This motorcycle is for sale locally, and I reserve the right to end the eBay sale early.
Buyer is responsible for shipping/pick up. I prefer local pick up, but will work with seller on possible delivery/shipping. A non-refundable PayPal deposit of $500 is due within 24 hours. Balance in cashier’s check or cash is due upon pick-up within 7 days or special arrangement.
If you have any questions drop me a line or if you would like more pictures, forward your e-mail address to zimzop.
Bid to buy, bid to restore, bid to ride, or bid to invest - the value has no place to go but up! You’re gonna love this motorcycle....

European Parliament Makes ABS Mandatory, Tighten Emissions Standards by 2016
Wed, 21 Nov 2012The European Parliament voted overwhelmingly in favor of new rules that would increase emission standards and make anti-lock braking systems mandatory for all new large motorcycles, scooters and trikes and quads by 2016. The new regulations, which would still need approval from European Union member states, may only directly affect Europe, but they will have a wide-reaching affect on manufacturers’ product development for other markets. BMW, for example, has already made ABS standard for all its motorcycles for 2013.
WSBK 2013: Portimao Race Report
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Marco Melandri and Eugene Laverty split a pair of victories at Portugal’s Portimao circuit while Sylvain Guintoli took advantage of some misfortune to his championship rivals to increase his lead in the 2013 World Superbike Championship standings. Guintoli has been leading or sharing the lead in the championship since winning the first race of Round 1 in Australia, but amazingly continues to lead despite having just that single victory after six rounds. The Aprilia rider has accomplished this through his consistency (Guintoli leads all racers with nine podium finishes in 12 races) and ability to finish each race (he’s the only rider in the top seven without a DNF).
