BMW R-Series description
- This auction is for a BMW r-series motorcycle.
- This "hot rod" toaster was fitted with a newer series frame and a yet newer series R100RS engine. Because of this, the miles indicated do not reflect the actual on the bike. Actual miles unknown.
- It has been well maintained over the years but recent parts replaced include: battery, battery straps, points, spark plugs, oil and filter, carb to head hoses and air filters.
- Mods include:
- Custom one-off fiberglass saddle bags.
- Corbin Gunfighter seat
- Custom mufflers welded and chrome plated to accommodate the saddle bags
- Lester Wheels
- Flanders Handlebars
- Removal of air cleaner box and replacement with individual air cleaners
- Removal of starter cover and replacement with fiberglass cover to sweep back over transmission
- Bar end mirrors
- Also comes with a custom two-up seat and full fairing if touring is your preference.
It has been painted BMW 2002 Fjord Blue. The fenders and tank paint are in great shape but the saddle bags have a few garage dings on them and would need to be repainted to bring back to perfect condition. The tank and side covers chrome and polish are perfect.
Enjoy the back roads on the naked bike or put the saddle bags on for running around town and back and forth to work ( that is how I usually ride it) If you feel like hitting the open road for some touring; put the two-up seat and fairing on. It is fun and comfortable in any configuration.
Please note: When I have used the word custom it means the previous owner fabricated the part and it is just beautiful. Ask all the questions you have and I will do my best to answer them or feel free to call me. I will email additional pics upon request. Thanks for looking and happy bidding.

The 390 Adventure Project – Upgrades and Adjustments
Wed, 10 Jul 2024Following 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.
Motorcycles at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show
Mon, 28 Sep 2009Two weeks ago, I took a break from my regular duties gathering news for Motorcycle.com to fly to Germany to cover the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show for our sister site AutoGuide.com. For two hectic days, AutoGuide editor Colum Wood and I scrambled across the massive 6.2 million square foot Messe Frankfurt trade fair compound, running from press conference to press conference to get the latest on exotic sport cars, futuristic concept models and international unveilings from the automotive world. It was heaven for car lovers, but for me, it meant fighting my way through hordes of photogs, auto-journalists and car show models to get the first photos of four-wheeled goodies from MINI, Ferrari and Lotus.
Ohlins Issues Recall Notice For BMW S1000RR And R1200R Steering Dampers
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Ohlins is issuing a recall notice for select aftermarket steering dampers for the BMW S1000RR and R1200R. The company believes the bracket holding the damper in place to be improperly machined, and a probable material defect in the aluminum alloy could cause stress fractures. Ohlins states that although “there is no risk for losing control during normal riding,” there is a risk the bracket will fail during slow-speed maneuvers, where the bars are turned at maximum steering angle.
