1968 BMW R60US A stunning classic airhead. A completely restored motorcycle done by
professionals at APEX BMW/ Ducati. The bike was completed in July of 2013 and now
has 1200 miles on the finished product. This is a no expense spared complete re-build,
using original and some new old stock parts. The frame, swing arm, cylinders and miscellaneous
parts were powder coated. All of the painted parts have fresh paint, and as
necessary the correct hand pin striped accents. The engine was completely disassembled and
rebuilt. The top end included rebuilding the cylinder
heads, new valve guides and seats, new valve springs, new pistons, new piston
rings, as well as 4 new pushrod tubes. The lower end of the motor has new crank bearings, camshaft bearings, a new sport camshaft. New cam nose bearings, new
slingers, new valve covers, new clutch friction plate, a new clutch spring, as
well new assembly parts and of course all new gaskets and seals. The crankshaft and the driveshaft were rebuilt to
original spec. The cylinders were re-bored to first oversize. The gearbox was completely re-built with new
bearings, seals, shims, and bushings. The rear drive got new crown and pinion bearings
and seals. The suspension front and rear was rebuilt with all new old stock parts when needed, and has all new bearings seals and gaskets. Rear swing arm bearings and seals are new. Also a new U.S. steering damper. A complete tune up included carburetor rebuild
with new parts, and the correct adjustments for the new BMW sport camshaft timing. A new air cleaner housing with choke, new air
filter and O rings. New wiring harness and necessary electric parts. Electrical and charging system has been upgraded
to a new 12 volt conversion. New magneto ignition coil and terminal board. New Hella OEM bar end signals. New Bumm mirrors, new switches, new switch bases
etc. Wheels were rebuilt with new bearings, seals, spokes,
brake shoes and tires. Reproduction exhaust system correct for R60. New Denfield seats. New Baggage Porters from Germany. Many other miscellaneous parts too numerous to
mention, nothing overlooked. If you are looking for a collectable vintage airhead,
it would be very hard to find one as nice as this. Short of original and new,

Thu, 20 Jun 2024First impressions of a unique e-bike from Scandinavia Photos by Nic de Sena Every good story needs a hook, and Verge certainly has one with its hubless rear wheel design.

Need more from your S1000RR?
Wed, 11 Aug 2010BMW has launched an HP Race Power Kit for the S1000 RR costing £2,850 including VAT.For trackday riders and racers, the kit - a new ECU and an Akrapovic exhaust system - increases peak power and torque, while optimising the bike’s engine, braking and power management systems, claim BMW, for short circuit riding and racing.Ayrton Badovini’s 2010 FIM Superstock 1000 championship-winning bike uses the HP Race Power Kit.
