BMW R-Series description

'75 R75/6 in excellent condition.  S/N 4940796. I am second owner. First owner purchased it new and put a lot of miles on it.I ride it frequently.  Currently about 97,800 miles on the clock.  Engine re-build in 2006 at 85,000 miles by none other than Oak Okleshen (tech guy for the Airhead's Club) in Illinois. I have receipts. Recent seat replacement. New cables. Burns no oil. No oil leaks. Tires are excellent, new battery, new original paint color done professionally about three years ago. After-market windscreen I installed myself (struts weren't quite long enough, I epoxied them). Both stopcocks replaced several years ago. Shocks replaced several years ago. Both the tach and the clock have been checked and refurbished last year. This bike always serviced to the minute, stored in heated, enclosed garage, concrete floor. Anything this bike needed it got. I ride this bike back & forth to work all the time. It was checked over recently by the one guy at my local BMW dealer that works on these old bikes, pronounced AOK, no safety issues, no impending big repair or maintenance work.

Dent in underside of rider's left muffler (see photo) was there when I bought the bike. I never noticed it till recently. Muffler intact. I never got around to replacing the muffler. 

I am getting older and I ride less, so time to thin the herd in my back garage. I have several other vintage bikes.

Steve Jobs: Rest in peace

Thu, 06 Oct 2011

Like me you probably discovered the news of Steve Jobs' death on an iPhone, an iPad or iMac. Years before turning Apple into the cool brand that it is today, Steve Jobs rode round on an old BMW. Apple said his "brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives.

Wed, 23 May 2012

BMW is entering the scooter market this year with its C600 Sport and C650 GT maxi-scooters, but the German manufacturer almost entered the scooter segment nearly 60 years earlier. In the 1950s, BMW produced a pair of scooter prototypes it called the R10. The first prototype produced in 1953 was equipped with a 175cc Single producing about 8hp while the 1954 prototype (pictured above) was equipped with a 200cc producing about 10hp.
