BMW R-Series description

1972(built in 1971) BMW R75/5 Motorcycle

Over $10,000 invested!

I have owned this bike since 2012. From 2003-2004 it underwent a complete

frame-off restoration and rebuild. The bike is supremely road worthy and has done

several tours including the 1,200 mile Lake Michigan Circle Tour. It is in excellent

mechanical condition, but it is a road bike meant for riding. It starts on the 2nd turn

over, and only needs light choking when cold. The sale includes Krauser saddle bags

with soft case inserts and associated mounting brackets.



Mileage since rebuild: 6,400+/-

Clear Colorado Title in hand

Post rebuilt insurance appraisal of $8,000 with paperwork

New parts and components installed during the rebuild include:

Frame stripped and powder coated

New wiring harness

New seat cover

Triple tree rebuilt

Front struts rebuilt

New rear shock springs

All wheel and suspension bearings repacked

New brake pads

All new clutch, brake and throttle cables

All new lights

Halogen headlight upgrade

New plug wires and caps

New Blue Lightning coils

New starter

New battery (2012)

EnDuraLast Electronic ignition(2013) $335.00

EnDuraLast 450w Charging System 105mm Stator (2013) $500.00 

Engine rebuild:

New timing chain and tensioner

All new gaskets and rubber

New clutch and cable

New main bearing seals

New connecting rod bolts and bearings

New pistons

New piston rings

Cylinders bored and honed

2013 BMW C650GT Canadian Pricing Announced – Sort Of

Thu, 26 Jan 2012

BMW has started production of its new C600 Sport and C650GT but still hasn’t officially released pricing information for its two new maxi-scooters. BMW Canada however may have let slip pricing for the C650GT: CA$11,900 BMW Motorrad Canada is holding a contest to give away a C650GT, and the contest rules list the scooter’s MSRP. Of course, the $11,900 price tag is subject to change, especially as the scooter isn’t expected to arrive in Canada until late 2012 as a 2013 model.
