BMW R-Series description
|
I have owned this bike for the last 6 years after acquired it
from the original owner in Minnesota. The bike was shipped the bike to Todd
Rasmussen in Oklahoma for a complete restoration and I gave Todd instructions
to build me a show quality bike to the highest standards while maintaining
absolute originality from the factory wherever possible. Todd’s work is well
known in the BMW circles and I have had NO issues with anything he has ever
built for me over the years including my prewar bikes. His attention to detail
and originality are meticulous. The bike has nearly 500 miles on the clock now and it is fully sorted and tuned. The valves have been adjusted recently along with cylinder head re-torque and oil change with ZDDP zinc additive. Plugs were changed and timing readjusted. This bike is an exceptional runner and a quality rider. Strong power through all gears equal compression between the cylinders. No strange noises or vibrations and control cables and carbs are all dialed in. This bike is ready for a cross country tour or show and has no issues. The bike has European handle bars, new passenger Denfeld saddle seat, spare luggage rack, full BMW tool kit, original manual and original spare key. All bugs and minor adjustments were worked out during these first 500 miles. Bike has a clear Minnesota title but I have yet to register it here in California. Every component has been replaced or restored as needed
and all original hardware was re-used and re-plated in cad. Correct gray cloth
fuel lines were custom made (not silver spray painted) and the original petcock
has been rebuilt, both a rarity to be seen. I have one small touched up chip on
the bottom side of the drive shaft housing (see photo), a very small left side scratch on top
of the muffler, and the drive shaft flexible boot that is beginning to show signs of
surface cracking between the bellows. The bike also can accumulate a teaspoon of oil under the
right side of the oil pan when not used for a few weeks so may need a re-torque
or replacement of the pan seal to stay dry. So, it isn’t a Pebble Beach 10
point bike like it was the day I took delivery but it is very close. This machine is a proven road bike that is tuned and sorted from break in. |
