BMW R-Series description
|
I'm a vintage BMW enthusiast and restored this bike in 2014. I tried to return the bike to as close to factory condition as possible. Original hardware, clamps, etc. were used everywhere possible. Original parts were cadmium plated, chrome plated, or polished to original condition. I have pictures of the restoration and a folder full of receipts to go to the buyer. The process took about 6 months and almost $8000. It is a short wheel base model. The bike has 223km (140mi) on it since restoration. It starts and runs perfectly. Ready for you to ride and enjoy or take to shows. Some of the things that were done include: Frame, subframe, swingarm, centerstand etc. stripped and powder coated satin black Tapered steering head bearings Forks rebuilt with new seals and oil New Hagon shocks Wheels relaced with chrome "clover-leaf" spokes and nipples New Avon tires, tubes and rim strips New brake shoes New exhaust system Low "sport" handlebar New chrome side panels Rechromed tank panels, fender brace, and grab handle Original hardware stripped and cadmium plated Bosch H4 headlight upgrade for better lighting 1st over pistons Cylinder heads rebuilt by Cycleworks New top end gaskets and seals New rear main seal and transmission input seal New clutch Carbs ultrasonically cleaned and rebuilt New petcocks and cloth covered fuel lines New seat New Motometer speedo and tach (in kilometers per hour) New grips, peg rubbers, and other rubber bits New cables as needed New sealed battery Bumm headlight mount mirrors Tank and fenders professionally painted Hand pinstriping Original toolkit, new air pump Original owner's manual Clean Kansas title Here is a video on youtube showing a cold start: https://youtu.be/dUHzuHH2sak If you have questions about the motorcycle, or would like to arrange a showing, you can contact me by phone at 913-486-9405. The bike is also for sale locally. I'm located near Kansas City. A $500 deposit is due within 48 hours of purchase. Thank you and happy riding! |

BMW “Persistent Erection” Lawsuit Dismissed
Tue, 18 Mar 2014The Superior Court of San Francisco has dismissed lawsuits against BMW and Corbin-Pacific Inc. brought on by a man who claimed a motorcycle ride gave him an erection that lasted for several months. The story made headlines and drew much ridicule after the man said vibrations from his 1993 BMW K1100RS and Corbin aftermarket seat resulted in a case of priapism, a condition in which a penis remains erect for a prolonged period of time.

Now, as part of the EICMA 2013 show, the rest of the world media and the public who are lucky enough to be in Milan get a chance to throw a leg over one.
