BMW R-Series description
The good:
I've got a beautiful rare 1959 R26 BMW up for sale that's all original (all matching) with a fresh top end rebuild on a 250cc motor and trans rebuild ($3,500 worth of work completed by Scottie's Workshop in Santa Clara, Ca.) Bunch of upgrades too like new handle bars, single side mirror, new exhaust pipe, points/plug, fluids, black and yellow plate that reads "1959 BMW", lots of receipts, manual, everything works, and clear title in hand. The bike gets tons of thumbs up from all kinds of riders and is a great foreground for any photo op. Every time I pull over to get off the bike it gets a lot of attention and cool conversations ensue. I've only put about 50 miles on the bike since all the work. I'm looking to sell off a few things because I'm getting into another passion of Porsche collecting and need the room. This is a fantastic display piece, a sweet ride to get attention on and take some cool photos of! The minor issues: The only thing it needs replaced is a small condenser in the coil (about a $12 part) that I believe needs a little soldering and an oil cover gasket (maybe $4 bucks for that.) It runs fine, but when warmed up a bit it loses a little power due to that condenser, but both are really easy fixes. The tank and back fender were chipped in small areas, but the previous owner touched it up and only adds to the charm of this beauty. This is a 57 year old bike! A great piece to hold onto and appreciate in value. I'll need a deposit of $500 within 24 hours of winning bid. Will consider offers and may end auction if price is right. Sale is final.
