BMW R-Series description
For sale: 1971 BMW R60/5 with a custom scrambler/tracker style set up. Rebuilt Carbs, new tank rubber pads, new BMW badges, new chrome Biltwell tracker bars, Biltwell grips, polished triple tree and clamps, new Shinko trail tires (less than 10 miles on the tires), Great reliable bike. Tank is not perfect. Has one dent towards rider's crotch (pictured) and several paint chips that have been touched up. We opted not to repaint this bike as it is set up as a 50/50 bike and might be prone to scratches anyway. The transmission on this bike is a bit noisy but to be expected of an older model BMW. I would guess the transmission bearings will need to be replaced in the future. This however IS a daily driver ands never left me stranded. A great reliable bike.

Ridden: BMW R1200GS Adventure
Fri, 07 Oct 2011My first meeting with a BMW GS was an unfortunate one. It was going back a few years now (certainly pre-Charlie McGregor era) Having just picked up this new model, I’d ridden 100 miles on a warm summer’s evening to reach my house by dusk. Mindful of the fact that said house contained two frenetic, bark-happy border collies and a small, sleeping child, I cut the ignition, whipped the clutch in and planned a gentle coast up to the area outside my front door.
EICMA 2012: BMW Announces New Boxer to Mark 90th Anniversary
Tue, 13 Nov 2012Over the summer, we came across spy photos of a new naked version of the BMW S1000RR and a new air-cooled boxer roadster and hoped at least one of the two would be unveiled at either Intermot or the EICMA. Intermot came and went without a word and now EICMA is upon us we have … well, several words but no new model. Yet.
