BMW R-Series description

This is a European model imported from Germany - speedo is in KM. I purchased this bike this past riding season, put $1,000 into it and have decided it is not the antique bike for me. 58,000 KM on the clock, speedo works well and everything on the bike works and it's a daily rider. This bike has a dealer replacement engine, so I assume when this bike was new BMW replaced the engine through a dealer. Frame and nameplate match. Comes with a set of Krauser bags.

Serviced in June - new filters, fluids, valve adjustments, fork oil, etc. 

The bike is in good condition and reasonably priced considering some of the barn finds I've seen for sale at $3,000 plus.  Ask questions, inspect in person if possible.

$500 deposit through Paypal. 

NOTE: Item is for sale locally.  Auction may be ended early.
