BMW R-Series description

Built by Second Wind BMW Triumph owner, and 30 year BMW Master Tech, Darrell Faulkenberry 


Custom BMW R100 Street Tracker. This airhead was completely stripped down to every single nut and bolt as always. Frame powder coated in BMW blue. This is number 15 of Darrell's BMW Airhead motorcycles. Total rebuild of the engine, transmission, forks, rear drive... on and on... The concept was to use a later model R100R platform because of the high performance forks, dual disc Brembo front brakes and large displacement motor with airhead reliability and character. Custom tracker seat and structure, modified frame, Ohlins shock, Brembo brakes, Custom hand-made exhaust, cross spoked tubeless strong wheels, totally new and rebuilt in every way and hilarious to ride! 

A little history of this bike:
This 1993 R100R original bike was sold by the shop when it was new, then was sold by the original owner to someone local in NH. Darrell recognized the bike and bought it from the second owner to build the custom tracker. The bike has 330 miles since the rebuild and winning buyer receives the first service done by Darrell before it's picked up. 

More details:

The bike has many custom treatments, a few notable points are the rear frame which was shortened, the seat structure, and exhaust were custom built - this bike has a deep sound but not too loud, everyone that's heard it says it sounds amazing and perfect for the bike. There are LED rear turn indicators inside the ends of the rear frame, there is a hidden ignition toggle under the tank that's reachable when you know where it is, no key, by design. The memory foam handmade seat is very comfortable and supportive and with the wide handlebars this bike can be ridden all day. Heidenau K60 Scout tires provide the right look on the motorcycle and are dirt road brawl ready while being a great handling road tire. All hardware is stainless steel (this is consistent with Darrell's stainless steel habit)

If you're looking for a professionally built (not happy hands at home) custom BMW Airhead, this 1,000cc Street Tracker may be for you.

Located at the shop, Second Wind BMW Triumph in Merrimack NH - the bike can be seen in person if you're local.

IIHS Asks NHTSA to Make ABS Brakes Mandatory for All Street-legal Motorcycles in US

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the Highway Loss Data Institute have submitted a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration petitioning in favor of making anti-lock brakes mandatory for all new on-highway motorcycles. The letter, addressed to David Strickland, NHTSA administrator, included a recent IIHS study on the effects of ABS on motorcycle fatal crash rates. The report found ABS technology reduces the rate of fatal crashes by 31%, while collision claim rates were 20% lower with ABS-equipped motorcycles.

The Falloon Files: 1973 BMW R90S

Mon, 24 Oct 2022

Let's Boxer In 1973, I was beginning to look at the streetbike magazines as well as the dirtbike ones on the magazine rack at Lyons Drug; there must’ve been 20 or 30 of them, and plenty of time to browse as there was no www, and very little hope of obtaining any motorcycle at all anytime soon. The 1973 BMW R90S was a chunk of pure unobtanium, from a planet far, far away, that knocked my striped tube socks completely off. Ian Falloon wrote an entire 128-page book about it.
