BMW R-Series description
Selling 1978 BMW R100rs. I bought in 2008 and it came with
the original fairing, which I had removed as I prefer the naked look better. I
got it at 50K miles and now it has about 60,300 miles. The bike runs great and never let me down. I am selling it
because I don’t get to use it enough. It comes with two original saddle bags
(the lock of one of them is broken), original paint (not the tank, which I
replaced), ohlins rear shocks and much more. Over these eight years I wanted to bring it back to its old
glory and have several improvement/maintenance jobs done at Motorcycle Works shop
in Brooklyn, where it was extremely well taken care of. This below is a brief
list of what has been done in the last 6K miles; I can provide complete
service history: New Yuasa battery New clutch Restored speedometer New headlight New brakes pads Rebuilt carburetors Rebuilt engine (new valves, reconditioned cylinder heads and
barrels, etc) New timing chain All new wires Replaced all forkseals Lastly, before putting it on the market I had a tune up and the annual NYS inspection done (valid until end of July 2017). All fluids are new, tank clean, valves tuned, carburetors checked, new fuel and oil filters, etc. Feel free to ask any question. The buyer is responsible for vehicle pickup or shipping. Thank you for watching |

Fake motorcycle police. Why?
Tue, 17 Jan 2012People who like to pretend they're police baffle me and annoy me in equal measure. I took this picture the other day at Cobham, about to join the A3 heading to Guildford. I guessed that the guy on the left had just bought his rather fetching BMW off the guy on the right.
