R27 BMW 250cc German motorcycle.  Tag, frame and engine numbers all match.  NO TITLE.  Speedometer shows 5,723 miles, but do not know if original.  Bike has been sitting in a shed for about 35 to 40 years and will need total restoration.  Motor turns over, transmission works thru all 4 gears and the wheels roll.  Gas tank has some rust pits on outside lower part but on the inside of tank has original primer and looks like new with no rust.  I do not have keys for tool box and cannot check for original tools.  Parts that are missing-front fender stay, battery box cover, hand throttle, headlight switch cover, and front brake lever.  Bike comes with NO TITLE but can give bill of sale.  What you see is what you get.  Sold as is, for parts.  No warranty.  Good luck bidding.
