BMW R-Series description

5 DAY AUCTION 
You are looking at a 1987 BMW R100 RT model which began life as a fully faired touring bike and has been reimagined as a cafe racer.  Custom leather saddle and fiberglass rear end, modern LED indicator lights and taillight. Pegs are relocated for a sportier riding position and handlebars have been swapped. Bike has a deep growl, but is not obnoxious...sounds like an air cooled porsche on two wheels. ONLY QUALITY PARTS USED. The original block, trans and running gear have not been modified and are in great running order. Very strong bike, shifts smooth and idles consistently. Just installed a new starter and battery. Mileage unknown ( no odometer)- last recorded was around 50k. Turn signals stopped working after new battery was installed, needs troubleshooting. Otherwise a trouble free commuter or weekend cruiser. Contact me for more detailed photos, videos or information. Will be posting closeup photos shortly, since many have asked. 
We have had a decent amount of local interest and are giving opportunity to wider market.

Mon, 23 Nov 2009

BMW introduced an inline six-cylinder café racer concept at the 2009 EICMA show in Milan, Italy. Inline-six engines have a staple in BMW’s automobiles for decades and the German manufacturer’s motorcycle division took on the challenge of adapting the straight-six to a bike without making it too long or too wide. The result is the BMW Motorrad Concept 6, and an evolution BMW says “will further expand the K-Series in the foreseeable future”.
