BMW Other description

 Here we have my Beautiful 1965 BMW R50/2. I purchased this bike from the original owner in the late 80's. It had 18,000 miles on it at the time. Over the years I have ridden it 2 up to many BMW Rallys, sometimes doing 700 miles in a weekend. It has never even hiccuped! About 5 years ago I pulled the top end off just to take a look. It was fine. Ball Honed the bore, new BMW rings and gasket and a valve job. Then I put 100 miles on it and it has been sitting ever since. I would retourque the heads and readjust the valves and not worry about it for another 23,000 miles. I am certain it could be put into proper running order in a couple of hours. Fresh fuel, a battery and go. I have always kept the oils and such clean and changed regularly.
    It is completely stock except for the seats and the windshied. I travel by motorcycle a lot, I have owned and ridden many BMWs, Harleys and Indians and this is as comfortable of a Motorcycle as I have ever ridden. I do not really want to sell it, I am just not using it.
   If you notice, it has the Ultra Rare VDO cam driven tach. It even has the little light. I have been literally offered thousands of dollars for the tach, but it should stay with the bike. I have set a reserve to where If I do not get my price I will just admire it for a few more years.
   This BMW is what they call a Triple Matching #. The Engine, Frame and VIN Tag all match. Clean Florida title, Original Tool Kit and Service Manual.
You could say this Bike Truly is Barn Fresh, as it has been in my Barn for the past 20+years! This baby has the look that is desirable today. You can not even come close to a bike with this much character with a restoration. It is only like this once!
  Look closely....ask questions. $500 PayPal deposit required within 3 days of auction end with the balance due in cash or Bank Check. If paid with Bank Check, the Motorcycle will leave my property when the check clears. Thanks and Happy Bidding!!

The two scooters are expected to be powered by a version of the parallel Twin engine used in the F800R, but with a lower displacement in the 500cc-650cc range.

Long Way Round camerman tests ebike in London rush hour

Fri, 26 Mar 2010

WE'RE MORE USED to seeing him busting a gut on a fully-kitted BMW R1150GS, so testing a silent, non-emission electric motorcycle must have been a weird experience for 'Long Way Round' cameraman Claudio Von Planta. The clip gives a great impression of how a first-generation ebike copes with London's traffic two-up.
