BMW R-Series description

1974 R90/6 with a 1978 R100 /7 motor, trans and rear drive. The rear drive is an 32/11 out of an RS. This is a 1000cc motorcycle and not a 900. All nuts and bolts were replaced with stainless steel fasteners, refinished originals or are new. The motor was re-ringed and resealed. It was put back together with all new gaskets and rubber seals. Any worn parts were replaced. It has a new clutch, all new cables, and rubber bits. It has stainless Norton peashooter mufflers and new header pipes. EBC floating front brake disc, rebuilt master cylinder and stainless brake lines. Lester mags, with new tires.

The paint is a 11 out of 10, all body parts repainted and hand striped. The frame is painted in a polyurethane enamel. This bike runs sweet and smooth idles perfect.Has no oil leaks. The note from the mufflers will bring a smile to your face. The pictures speak for the bike. Look them over ask questions.

The motor has most of the pieces painted silver much like the newer motorcycles. A clear coating was used to seal off the pours and casting. This aids in cleaning and keeping the motor looking new instead of turning grey and streaked. The transmission has been painted also. This was professionally done. The engine block itself was left original.

Comes with clear title and permanent Washington collector's plates.

The 390 Adventure Project – Upgrades and Adjustments

Wed, 10 Jul 2024

Following in the wake of the Biltwell 100 race, my confidence in the 390 Adventure and my ability to pilot it for long stretches off-road soared. The ability to combine the technical skills I learned in the ATX Moto Adventures and Sedlak Off Road classes, along with some good old-fashioned seat time, really paid off. In addition, there were two changes I made to the bike that firmly cemented my trust in piloting it through the sketchy sandy trails – a custom lowered seat from Seat Concepts, and some aggressive knobby tires.
