BMW R-Series description

Here is the 1981 R80 G/S - the original GS dual purpose model - Paris/Dakar big tank model with solo seat and attached rack.  Engine #: 6207526.  Fitted with stainless spokes and Staintune stainless exhaust system, BMW bags and has the sump guard.  


Good condition throughout: tank has No dents and frame has been powder-coated.  All functional and relatively low mileage from new and could do with new battery.  Starts right up and mechanically quiet.   The machine had a screen although now lost (screen fixtures are fitted).  Rims are good and do have some alloy corrosion which will need to be polished out.  Note that the original I.D. tag had been removed when the frame was powder-coated, however the last 6 or so digits of Vin number are stamped on the frame.
 
Please contact me with any questions and I will get back to you promptly; 818 347 1460.  I will assist with shipping as much as possible and by delivering to a depot within 40 miles if needed.  An ebay deposit will be required within 48 hours from auction end and balance within seven days.  Appreciate your interest.

MV Agusta Superveloce 1000 Serie Oro - First Look

Tue, 09 Jul 2024

Only 500 examples of this aesthetic powerhouse will be made MV Agusta is nothing if not exotic, and the company introduced its new limited edition Superveloce 1000 Serie Oro to its assembled group of journalists exactly how you’d expect: by emphasizing its beauty. Sure it’s powered by a 200-plus horsepower four cylinder with titanium connecting rods and radial valves, but that’s not really the star of the show here. According to MV’s Stefano Campaci, the Superveloce 1000 Serie Oro had to appeal to both motorcyclists and even non-motorcyclists alike.

The 390 Adventure Project – Upgrades and Adjustments

Wed, 10 Jul 2024

Following in the wake of the Biltwell 100 race, my confidence in the 390 Adventure and my ability to pilot it for long stretches off-road soared. The ability to combine the technical skills I learned in the ATX Moto Adventures and Sedlak Off Road classes, along with some good old-fashioned seat time, really paid off. In addition, there were two changes I made to the bike that firmly cemented my trust in piloting it through the sketchy sandy trails – a custom lowered seat from Seat Concepts, and some aggressive knobby tires.
