This is a nice , low mile example of a good solid 70s airhead. The bike starts and runs great. It has been converted to dual plug at some point. It has set up for a bit prior to me getting it ready for sale so it will need your standard fluid change of your choice and should be ready to go. The bike has been repainted in what looks pretty close to the factory Monza blue at some point in its life. It looks good and shines well. The bike has a Vetter faring installed thats in great shape. It could be removed easily if thats not your thing. Youll just need the headlight lens, trim ring, and blinkers from a stock bike as I do not have these parts. The wheels and spokes look good but the tires do need to be replaced. Instead of changing them, I decided to let the new owner pick his or her brand out for themselves and have adjusted the price accordingly. The fork boots are a little dry as well and I would replace them the next time I serviced the forks or while I had the front tire off. I dont know much about the bikes history other than it was owned by a very good friend that recently passed. I have a book with some paperwork that will come with the bike as well as several sets of keys. I have the keys for the Vetter fairing, and extra ignition key, a fork lock key, keys for the Samsonite luggage, and a few more bits that come with it as well. The luggage is in great shape and is a nice addition to the bike. There is no tool kit but the air pump is there.
This seems to be a very good bike needs little to just ride and have fun. Im selling the bike no reserve. The high bidder at the end gets it. That being said it is a 39 year old bike and comes with no guarantees/ warranties expressed or implied. A local inspection is welcomed and recommended prior to bidding. Payment is due via cashiers check, bank wire, or cash in person. All funds must clear my bank before the bike or title will be released. The bike must be paid for in full within 5 days of the acutions end and a $500 non refundable deposit is due within 12 hours. Arrangement for the remainder need to be handled within the 12 hours as well. The bike must be picked up within 3 weeks of auctions end or storage fees will apply . The title is a open Indiana title in my friends name. Ive tried to take plenty of pictures to show the true condition of the bike. Please ask any and all questions prior to bidding as I want no surprises on either end. Thanks
I know there has been a lack of blogging on my S1000RR recently and that’s because it’s broken, but only a little bit. On July 18th I was at Silverstone looking after some Bahnstormer BMW customers, when late in the afternoon something hit me on the back as I was charging down the Wellington Straight. At that precise moment I also thought I had hit a false neutral but it turns out the chain had snapped.
BMW has initiated a recall on the 2012 and 2013 S1000RR because the side stands may not have been correctly installed. According to Transport Canada, the side stand attachment bolts may loosen, causing an S1000RR to fall over while resting on the stand. At the moment, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has yet to announce a recall, but American members of Motorcycle.com‘s S1000RR Forum say U.S.
Tom Sykes has taken over the lead in the 2013 World Superbike Championship standings after splitting race victories with Chaz Davies at Germany’s Nurburgring circuit. Both races ended prematurely however with red flags during the final laps. Pata Honda‘s Jonathan Rea and FIXI Crescent Suzuki‘s Leon Camier both crashed on the 18th lap of Race One after running into oil spilled on the track from Pedercini Kawasaki racer Federico Sandi‘s ZX-10R.
