BMW R-Series description

You are bidding on one 1983 BMW R100RT running project bike with only 10,298 miles. I got this bike from a friend of mine who had purchased it from an elderly gentleman. The bike did not come with a title, so I purchased a separate frame (the frame is a 1981 model RT-VIN 6232665) with clear title in order to rebuild the bike onto the titled frame. The engine started right up, and sounded smooth. The bike needs complete restoration: the brakes are not functional, and the front forks are slightly rusty. The gas tank is in good condition, but needs petcocks and a gas cap. As you can see from the pictures, the tank does not match the paint of the rest of the bike. The stock seat has been replaced with a Corbin seat, but the stock seat is included in the sale. I eliminated the emissions system, and plugged off the ports with an emissions kit from Bob's BMW. All the airbox parts and starter cover are included with the sale. The bike is being sold at no reserve to the highest bidder, AS-IS, with no warranties expressed or implied. Buyer is responsible for arrangement and costs of shipping. I will assist your shipper with getting the bike loaded for transport. You are also welcome to pick up the bike yourself, and I will be happy to arrange a time to meet. That being said, I believe this will make a great project for someone who has the capability and time to put it all together. Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!
