BMW R-Series description

1974 BMW R90/6 with only 12,877 Original Miles !

I am listing this for a buddy in our Vintage Motorcycle Club.  

He has a couple other Vintage Bikes plus a Trike Project and needs to make room in his workshop. 


Great Bike - please take a close look.


Started with a Vetter Windjammer Faired, 900cc 5 Speed BMW Original Paint in White.  

Triple Matching Numbers – Frame, Motor and Neck Tag.


Vetter was removed and a period correct Wixom Fairing with Original Windscreen was sourced.  Wixom Fairing and Tour Pack were painted and striped to very closely match the Original BMW color. Fenders and Side Panels are still Original Paint. 


There are a couple scratches on the tank from taking the seat on/off – please see pics.


Drive Train is Stock with Original Carbs & Air Filter systems. 

Exhaust & Mufflers are in good shape. 

Tires are new with approx. 200 miles on them and Brakes are good.  


Starts & Runs well.  All Instruments, Lights and the Horn work as they should.  


I also own a 1974 R90/6 that I have ridden from Ohio to Daytona, Sturgis, Myrtle Beach, Blue Ridge, etc.  My R90 keeps up easily with “New Bikes” on the trips. 


I have personally ridden this White R90/6 and it performs as well as my bike does. 


Vetter Fairing and “All Day” Seat included in sale. 


Buyer agrees to $500.00 deposit through PayPal at conclusion of Auction and Balance to be paid by Wire Transfer to seller’s bank within 5 days of Auction close. Buyer may elect to pick up BMW @ seller location north of Cincinnati in Ohio, USA.  Buyer responsible for all shipping costs and related insurances.

Also being sold / offered locally. 


I will attempt to answer any questions you may have. 


Good Luck Bidding !

2013 BMW R1200GS Telelever Problem Explained in Transport Canada Recall

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Earlier this week, we wrote about reports in the Italian media of a delay on deliveries of the 2013 BMW R1200GS because of an issue with the suspension. Transport Canada has now issued a recall notice on BMW‘s new GS – the third to come from the Canadian government agency – that would explain the delay. According to Transport Canada, the threaded plugs securing the fork tubes to the upper triple clamp may come loose over time on some units.

BMW S1000RR at Nürburgring [video]

Wed, 02 Sep 2009

BMW’s new S1000RR is one of the mostly highly anticipated sportbikes to come along in years. Its four-cylinder motor has a larger bore than anything else in its 1000cc class, plus all the latest racetrack goodies like a slipper clutch, variable-height intake manifolds and traction control. We’re still a few months away from testing it for ourselves, but we can across this great video that will give you a little insight into how this Beemer howls at top speed.

WSBK 2013: Moscow Race Report

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Marco Melandri captured his third win of the season, the Ducati 1199 Panigale scored its first podium while Sylvain Guintoli regained the championship lead despite dislocating his collarbone days before the race. But the big news at Moscow Raceway of course was the tragic death of Andrea Antonelli in the World Supersport race. The opening-lap crash in severely wet conditions naturally led to the cancellation of the rest of the events as the World Superbike community mourns the loss of the 25-year-old Antonelli.
