BMW R-Series description

1977 BMW R100S with Krauser 4 valve heads and flat slide Mikunis.  High performance Krauser heads installed & dyno tuned by Chris Hodgson of San Jose BMW.  Originally purchased in central California.  Bike starts and runs/rides, it needs a tune-up.  The motorcycle does not leak, smoke or make any unusual sounds.  The transmission shifts well.  It's a 40 year old vintage bike, maintained but unrestored.  The paint is appropriate for a motorcycle this age,  it has a few flaws, but presents honestly and attractively. The fuel system is clean and it has a new (60 days) glass-mat  battery installed.  While parked at BMW motorcycle events it always draws a crowd.  It has always been stored indoors since new.  If you have the funds available for purchase, and would like questions answered I will return phone calls to U.S. numbers.  Please be a serious buyer if calling.  Leave a voice message at (nine O for) 23for-sixtyseven eighty.  I have other horses in the stable, and am thinning the herd so check my other auctions for uncommon German and Italian motorcycles.  I have been riding and collecting bmw motorcycles since 1987.  Time changes everything, and I am finally ready to let someone else enjoy owning some of them.

This motorcycle, with the associated documentation, is a rare bird to say the least.   Make it yours.
