1972 BMW R-Series

Clear

Beautiful BMW 1972 R60/5 "Toaster Tank" in exceptional cosmetic and mechanical condition. 50,000 miles. Always garaged. Lovingly restored ~6 years ago and mechanically brought to perfect condition by Bay Area vintage BMW motorcycle specialist a year ago. Excellent (90% of original) compression, newly rebuilt final drive and rear main seal, fresh spark plugs, timing, valves adjusted, oil, filter, brake fluids. I've been riding boxer twins for 40 years, and this is one of the best I've seen. Purrs the way these bikes are supposed to, smooth as silk, just goes and goes. Have videos I can send so you can see and hear for yourself. Have original 1972 magazine reviews, ads, shop manual and parts catalog. Selling her because my dream bike (R90S) frame off restoration is ready to pick up and my wife will kill me if I keep both. Can arrange shipping anywhere in U.S. with an excellent reliable shipper. Can be seen in San Francisco, California. There are cheaper bikes of this type out there but you'd have to look a long time to find one in this condition.
