BMW R-Series description

Up for sale is a 1971 BMW R75/5 short wheel base motorcycle. This bike runs excellent and has had over 1k worth of repairs and maintenance since I've owned it this past year. It has been garage kept. The previous owner was an older gentleman who had knee surgery so he was unable to ride the bike for a couple of years. It was always run and has never been sitting for long. 

This motorcycle is cosmetically in good shape but is nowhere near mint or completely original. It starts up usually on the first or second try and has been incredibly reliable daily driver for me this past year. With a new job my wife and I need a second car so I am sadly listing my bike. It is one of the most handsome bikes you will see anywhere and I constantly have people coming up beside me and saying how much they love the bike. The bike is very powerful and some of my friends who have a lot more experience than me say its one of the most fun bikes they have ridden. If you live in the Nashville area please come by and take a look and test drive the photos do not do it justice!

Gold Rush

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Spotted at this year's Motorcycle Live. The 'net is awash with gold-wrapped and horrendously painted supercars, often sporting Middle-Eastern numberplates but this S1000RR isn't an Arab creation. Nope, it's a one-off paintjob by BMW for the 2012 Olympics, where BMW supplied cars and bikes to ferry around VIPs.
