BMW R-Series description

Got this bike over twenty years ago and shortly after decided to restore it. when i got it it had rusted exhaust,short in the electrical system and all sorts of there issues...
I went with stainless steel exhaust,new cables,wheels were sent out and came with stainless spokes,new tires , cylinder heads were updated to a needle bearings style rocker arms,new rings ,reseated valves ,powder coated frame,new clutch ,all new cables, polished forks,powder coated seat base .....
When i got the bike it had  17k miles and it had sat outside for a while so it needed most of what was done to it.I went to DMV and the did all the paperwork and of course the title came back with 725550k miles They said that they needed to see the bike to correct it well it was apart so that never got done...
The title says 72555miles the odometer with a broken needle says 24565
The bike will need tires,battery,rubber grips you decide....
It will run and it started on the third kick after sitting 4 years. I was just kicking it to get the oil going before starting it an there it went so with the jumper battery all the electrics work.
All in all it can be an easy restoration project and a nice ride for the summer...
I would like to see it gone since it is not getting used and it is a waste..
Have way too many other bikes and this one just sits in the barn collecting dust.

2010 BMW S1000RR – First Ride

Fri, 20 Nov 2009

UPDATE:  Full Review now on Motorcycle.com (with video) We just spent the day ripping it up around the fabulous Portimao race circuit in Portugal on BMW’s new S1000RR supersport literbike, and it’s set to blow away perceptions of what a BMW motorcycle is. With 193 crankshaft horsepower and a claimed dry weight of 404 pounds, BMW says the S1000RR has the best power-to-weight ratio of any production bike. And, by the way the S1000 lofts its front wheel onto Portimao’s front straight at 150 mph, we’re becoming believers!
