BMW R-Series description

Very clean and original touring model with only 7,000 miles!  The bike was recently acquired from the original owner who has retired from riding.  Original owner had the frame, wheels and miscellaneous mounting brackets professionally repainted/powder coated.  There are many new factory parts installed and included with the sale.  All bike components and systems are fully functional and in good working order!

The bike is painted the factory original magenta-red color and does have chips, scratches and fading.  Only non original parts are a) rear shocks, b) dash headlight mounted switch and c) new Interstate AGM sealed battery.  Period correct Konis are installed and work well.  The original Nivomat shocks are included with the sale however they are not 'pumping up'.  Wiring of aftermarket headlight switch maybe reconfigured to the original control switch. 

The 1983 models are the most technically advanced twin shock BMWs and this bike, due to mileage and condition, will make an excellent long distance traveler, or member of a collection, or a great platform for a naked, cafe', or custom bike conversion.

All questions will be thoughtfully answered.

2025 Honda NT1100 Updated for Europe, but Still Not Coming Here

Fri, 04 Oct 2024

More than 12,000 sold since 2022, but 0 in North America Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: Honda has updated one of its most popular models in Europe, but it’s still not coming to North America. We’ve heard that refrain a lot over the years, and it’s no different for the NT1100 sport-tourer. Introduced in Europe in 2022, the NT1100 is a sport-touring model that shares much of its bones with the CRF1100L Africa Twin.

2012 Piaggio X10 350i Review – First Ride

Mon, 23 Apr 2012

Back in 1993 Piaggio had developed the Hexagon, which became the world’s first so called GT scooter. Through the X7 to the all new X10, Piaggio has developed its new flagship scooter, and in Paris I got to sample the 350cc version of the X10. Piaggio will offer the X10 as a 125, 350 and 500cc version.

Winter weather but summer carries on.

Aye, it’s been a another good week in the world of Niall Mackenzie. My friends at Moto Direct sent me a new RST Pro Series suit to try out, I acquired some new rubber for my S10000RR and young Taylor Mac splashed home to 12th place on his Aprilia in the 125cc British Grand Prix. Being no fashion guru and pretty ancient now I’m satisfied the brightest suit I’ve ever climbed into looks the biz.
