BMW R-Series description

Very clean and original touring model with only 7,000 miles!  The bike was recently acquired from the original owner who has retired from riding.  Original owner had the frame, wheels and miscellaneous mounting brackets professionally repainted/powder coated.  There are many new factory parts installed and included with the sale.  All bike components and systems are fully functional and in good working order!

The bike is painted the factory original magenta-red color and does have chips, scratches and fading.  Only non original parts are a) rear shocks, b) dash headlight mounted switch and c) new Interstate AGM sealed battery.  Period correct Konis are installed and work well.  The original Nivomat shocks are included with the sale however they are not 'pumping up'.  Wiring of aftermarket headlight switch maybe reconfigured to the original control switch. 

The 1983 models are the most technically advanced twin shock BMWs and this bike, due to mileage and condition, will make an excellent long distance traveler, or member of a collection, or a great platform for a naked, cafe', or custom bike conversion.

All questions will be thoughtfully answered.

Will the road-going RCV look like this?

Thu, 25 Oct 2012

Honda announced in a dry-as-you-like press release that a new bike was coming.  Not another motorcycle-cum-medical aid like the DN-01 or Integra, this is going to be a proper bike. A bike in a similar vein to previous bikes in the RC series, the RC30, RC45 and RC51, aimed squarely at winning races. So what's it going to look like?

Motorcycle.com Weekly Community Round-up!

Here are a few things going on around the Motorcycle.com Forum Network: Animated Engines plivez, a new member of the Ducati.ms forums (welcome Plivez!) has a website where he animates motorcycle engines in flash. It’s pretty interesting to see the way a Evo and Twin Cam V twin Harley Davidson engine works. He also has up the crazy BMW flat twin R100 motorcycle engine which seems more complicated then an engine should be!

BMW Announces 2023 Colors and Model Updates

Thu, 30 Jun 2022

New colors and packages for returning models BMW released initial details on its 2023 model lineup, including new colors and minor updates. BMW also announced the base MSRP for most of its models, though that information is rather moot, as it also announced additional packages which will automatically be added on to all models in the U.S. Not all models are included in this announcement, however.
