BMW R-Series description

Helping my retired neighbor who is the original owner, sell his beloved pampered BMW which he bought off the showroom floor in 1971 when he was in his 40's! It only has 16000 original miles on it !!! It has not been ridden in a good 12 years or so. He had it COMPLETELY tuned up this summer. The left cylinder blows a little smoke but it should clear up if someone would just take it for a spin on the highway. He said that he added some oil additives and that it should burn out. I did notice the mirrors don't match and it includes the cover. This motorcycle was NEVER EVER ridden hard. It is ALL ORIGINAL. Tires are recent continentals.

Any questions ,call the owner, Irv, 773-528-0023, if no answer, leave a message and he will call you back. PLEASE SCROLL DOWN AND LOOK AT ALL THE PHOTOS AS THEY ARE PART OF THE DESCRIPTION and bid accordingly.

Selling at no reserve so bid to win !
