********************************************************************


This is a 1957 BMW R26, fresh restoration. All numbers match bike. All parts purchased from Germany from OEM provider and through BMW. All parts were media blasted, re-chromed and powder coated, with exception to the tins which were painted. Electrical system has new harness, contactless ignition (no more points to fuss with) and semiconductor voltage regulator 6v for ease of operation and reliability.  It comes with the BMW tool kit and rag, 2 mirrors that are included but not installed at moment, and passenger foot pegs. Rack was installed on rear fender with gasket so as to not mar the finish and can be easily removed for clean look, or for passenger seat. I have the original long seat that will be included if interested. 

This was a detailed restoration that consisted of painting and powder coating all the parts to last for a very long time--everything from the wheels up was blasted and powder coated.  This is your chance to get a classic BMW that is better than other restorations as it has been powder coated and has OEM parts, not cheap Turkish and Indian parts. The upgrades are a larger capacity oil pan, modern contactless ignition, and voltage regulator. I have a huge list of receipts from parts and professionals on this restoration, if interested.

I purchased this bike as a literal "barn find' here in Idaho and I got it from the original owner. The title has a temporary brand that will be lifted soon, or I believe, once transferred. This was due to the bike's age since they didn't issue titles for them in Idaho back then. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to call/text/email anytime 208 891 zero553 Feel Free To Make Offers, may also consider trades full/partial for classic car, bikes or more, doesn't hurt to ask.

I will work with your transport company or can suggest a few that I have worked with in the past. Vehicle does not have a warranty or guarantee . $500 deposit required within 24 hours, final payment to be within 7 days, if longer time needed please contact.


Possible trades project or working Porsche, DeLorean, Mercedes, BMW, Ford, Mopar or other european and muscle cars or bikes like Mustang, challenger, charger

2013 BMW F800GT Revealed in CARB and EPA Documents

Fri, 31 Aug 2012

Documents released by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Board confirm the existence of a new member of BMW‘s F800 lineup, the F800GT. The 2013 BMW F800GT will likely be a more touring-oriented replacement for the F800ST (pictured above) which was conspicuously absent from the CARB document.

2023 BMW S1000RR Review - First Ride

Thu, 29 Dec 2022

Bavarian Bullet Credit: Photos by BMW Motorrad/Markus Jahn and Jörg Künstle It scarcely seems possible that BMW Motorrad’s lineup-leading S1000RR sportbike actually made its official public debut a whole decade and a half ago in April 2008, with deliveries beginning the following year. Even though 15 years is a long time, especially in the Superbike arena, where serious players like BeeEm, as well as Ducati, Aprilia, and the Japanese, don’t stint on investing in fast-moving high-end technical R&D in pursuit of engineering excellence, the German brand’s first-ever customer motorcycle with a transverse-mounted four-cylinder has maintained its leading edge reputation for both mechanical and electronic innovation ever since then, and the newly introduced latest version is no exception. This is because, for the coming 2023 model year, BMW has essentially uprated its existing volume production version of the bike by transplanting a good chunk of the array of technical upgrades available until now only to around 1,200 well-heeled or well-sponsored users of the M1000RR, the uber-expensive, uber-performing version of BMW’s street-legal superbike that’s been on sale for the past two years, essentially as a homologation special for Superbike racing.
