BMW R-Series description
Here is a nice example of a 1978 R80/7 BMW motorcycle. Exact miles unknown since original speedo and odometer were broken and replaced. The bike has new paint on the tank, front and rear fenders, headlight ears, headlight bucket, taillight, side covers, turn signal pods, front engine cover, and valve covers. Bike also features new fork seals and boots, new engine down tube seals, cyl gaskets, and valve gaskets. Other improvements include wrapped headers, koni shocks, dyna ignition, lots of new small rubber and plastic bits...too numerous to mention, new grips and rider peg rubbers, and of course all new oils. I just have too many projects. Bike has a clear title in my name and runs and rides nicely. Good tires although not new but lots of tread and no cracks. Engine and frame numbers match. Reserve is less then I have in it. Good luck bidding.

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. It can also be found on the Jentin Racing-BMW Motorrad S 1000 RR being raced by Richard Cooper in the British National Superstock championship.• Maximum engine output increased by 4bhp and 6lb.ft to 197bhp (147kW) and 88.5 lb.ft (120 Nm) with power and torque significantly bolstered throughout the key 5000 to 9000 rpm midrange• Once installed, the power mapping for the four engine management riding modes (‘Rain’, ‘Sport’, ‘Race’ and ‘Slick’) is identical and the S 1000 RR delivers the full 197bhp across all four modes• The different modes instead alter the electronic rider aids with the Race ABS reducing input and the Dynamic Traction Control allowing full power at greater lean angles as the modes move from ‘Rain’ through to ‘Slick’• Engine braking on overrun is reduced giving more balanced corner entry• Pit-lane limiter activated when the start button is held down in first gear (actual speed maintained may vary with the bike’s gearing)• Akrapovic titanium and carbon-fibre full exhaust system saves 6.8kg over stock and includes a baffle which allows the exhaust to meet noise regulations in place at some circuits
