1976 BMW R-Series

Clear

***1976 BMW R90/6*** For sale is this beautiful partially restored 1976 BMW R90/6 Airhead. One owner for the last thirty plus years. I was advised by him that when the speedometer broke it had 23000 miles on it and that was right before I bought it. I have no way of proving this but he seemed like a VERY honest man, as am I! I haven't replaced it simply because I can't find one and wasn't sure if the next owner would want to put a cafe' style set on it. This bike runs perfect with no known mechanical issues and lives up to the idea that BMW truly is the Rolls Royce of all motorcycles! Goes through the gears perfect and runs incredibly strong with no misses, sputters, wobbles, shimmies, shakes or rattles. Comes with BOTH seats and new seat trim for the original seat. If you are looking to Cafe' a classic bike, this one would be perfect! Or, go the other way and finish the work I've started for you in making this an awesome original. Recent work includes:Torn down to the bare frame-frame painted with POR 15Engine removed inspected for leaks and cleanedNew mufflersNewer tiresAll new switches including turn, horn, on/off, light, starter button etc...Everything sanded down to the bare product and repainted with six coats of Candy Jet Black paint and six coats of clear on the tank, side covers, fenders, and headlight bucketWhat it will need: Odometer and Speedometer cable (original was broken when I got it)Front turn signals (Unless you cafe the bike)Handlebars are scaling a little so I was going to replace them but thought maybe the next owner could decide what type of bars they wanted (Cafe?, Flat bars, etc...)Seat lock Check my feedback and bid with the confidence in knowing that I will be honest with you and you will get the bike as advertised!
