BMW R-Series description

Very nice patina'd old Airhead BMW R60/2.  Title follows the triple numbers matching R50/2 that is started out as.  The previous Owner has the motor rebuilt to R60 specs when he had the motor gone through.  He did not have the paperwork so I do not have it either. You can visually see the R60 cylinders on the motor and it runs beautifully.  Since I've owned the bike, I've replaced the tires, all cables, battery, battery strap, air filter and cork base, plugs, plug caps, and had the carbs balanced.  The bike starts on one or two kicks.

Like I mentioned in the description, the bike is unrestored.  It cleans up nice and as a 10 footer admirable quality.  Its a 50 year old bike with some nice looking patina.  There are scratches here and there, and dent on the tank and some on the fenders.  

I have some more parts like springs and shocks and such that can go with the bike.

The spy photo shows the top of the test bike, with the engines, wheels and exhaust hidden behind a railing.

WSBK 2013: Portimao Race Report

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Marco 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).

Vines motorcycle scrappage

Fri, 17 Jul 2009

  Following this year’s earlier Budget announcement about the government’s car scrappage scheme, Vines of Guildford BMW has created a similar scheme for motorcycles. Bike owners with motorcycles bought five or more years ago will be given £1,000 off the list price of a new BMW motorcycle when using their old bike as a part-exchange*.  Riders just need to ensure they have at least six months MOT left and the bike must be taxed with clear HPI.  Just like the Government’s car scrappage scheme has been put in place to help drivers, and the car industry, through tough economic times, Vines of Guildford wanted to offer motorcyclists the same opportunity, to purchase a brand new BMW motorcycle with the benefit of the £1,000 part exchange. As well as enjoying this benefit on the purchase price of a new BMW bike, riders can also look forward to complimentary panniers with all new R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure models, and complimentary Zumo sat nav system with the new R1200RT until 30 Sept, plus access to BMW’s Select Finance options to get riders on their bikes straight away with the option to change their new bike every two to three years.
