BMW R-Series description
1972(built in 1971) BMW R75/5 Motorcycle
Over $10,000 invested!
I have owned this bike since 2012. From 2003-2004 it underwent a complete
frame-off restoration and rebuild. The bike is supremely road worthy and has done
several tours including the 1,200 mile Lake Michigan Circle Tour. It is in excellent
mechanical condition, but it is a road bike meant for riding. It starts on the 2nd turn
over, and only needs light choking when cold. The sale includes Krauser saddle bags
with soft case inserts and associated mounting brackets.
Mileage since rebuild: 6,400+/-

Own (what could be) a piece of motorcycling history
Mon, 14 Jun 2010Get bidding for what could be a revolutionary motorcycle, as the advert states all you need is, "a fair wedge of ingenuity" to marry together a BMW K75 and the 1.4 diesel engine from a Citroen AX. Thankfully the seller will be able to help with the project: "I have most of the design lodged firmly in my head, and will be more than happy to provide information." With a starting price of £100 and no bids the diesel project bike only has one day left on eBay
Transport Canada Recalls 2013 BMW R1200GS for Traction Control Bug
Thu, 21 Feb 2013The 2013 BMW R1200GS hasn’t arrived in showrooms yet and it’s already been subjected to its second recall in Canada.

Earlier this month, Transport Canada announced a recall for the new R1200GS for a potential transmission oil leak.
CFMoto 650TK Riders Set Record with 21,222-Mile Tour of China
Fri, 20 Dec 2013A couple of adventurers have claimed a new world record for longest journey by motorcycle in a single country after completing a 21,222-mile trek around China. Buck Perley and Amy Mathieson completed their trek, traveling all 33 of China’s provinces in 147 days on a CF Moto 650TK sport-tourer. Guinness World Records still needs to ratify the couple’s journey, but if it stands, they will have surpassed the previous record of 18,041 miles set by Steven H. Siler earlier this year, after he completed his 26-day trip around the U.S.
