1958 BMW R60
I'm the third owner of this 1958 BMW R60 and it's been in my collection for years. When I purchased it, it had a Ural sidecar on it, I put the MZ sidecar on it about a year ago. The bike has always started on the first or second kick.  It's been started monthly and taken out for a two-three mile ride each time.  I have run it without a battery,  and the magneto has always held it's charge. 

I was told the mileage was correct when I purchased it.  The speedometer has always worked and I believe the mileage is correct. The bike is complete and original, and is in very good condition.   

1969 MZ Sidecar
MZ (Motorradwerk Zschopau) sidecars are a quality made Aluminum sidecar made in Germany.  This one is in very good condition with minor scratches but no dents. It's frame design and light weight aluminum body pairs up well on the old BMW's. It has a battery tray mount to hold a larger battery and a drum brake system. The brake system will need to be flushed and cleaned to get it working. All sidecar attachments are installed and included. The top sidecar mounting bolt works, but is not the correct bolt.   

This is a no reserve auction so please look at all the pictures and ask any questions before you bid. The bike is available for showing by appointment before the auction ends.

Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and costs. The bike is sold as-is with no warranty offered or implied. A $500 non refundable PayPal deposit is due within 48 hours from the end of the auction and full payment is due within 7 days from the end of the auction.

My S1000RR has stopped but it's only a broken chain.

Thu, 15 Sep 2011

I know there has been a lack of blogging on my S1000RR recently and that’s because it’s broken, but only a little bit. On July 18th I was at Silverstone looking after some Bahnstormer BMW customers, when late in the afternoon something hit me on the back as I was charging down the Wellington Straight. At that precise moment I also thought I had hit a false neutral but it turns out the chain had snapped.
