BMW R-Series description

Bike runs excellent. True miles unknown, the odometer does NOT work. Speedo does work. Tack is erratic. Tires are good to excellent. Turn signals, horn lights work fine. Bike is nice to ride, but there is a rattle in the front. Bags are not original on this bike, and are a little rough but functional. Trans shifts perfect. Good rider. Recently took it on a 300 mile ride with no problems. This old airhead oozes charm. Tank & fenders just painted & look great. I can no longer get my car in the garage, need thin the herd.

Eugene Laverty did everything he could, scoring a pair of race wins but it was not enough as Tom Sykes rode smartly and conservatively at the season finale in Spain, securing his first ever World Superbike Championship. Sykes landed in Jerez with a 37-point lead over Laverty and a 38-point lead over Sylvain Guintoli. While Laverty battled Marco Melandri to win Race One, Sykes coasted comfortably in third for most of the race to score 16 points, enough to clinch the title.
