1981 BMW R-Series

Clear

Custom rebuild, many parts replaced, very unique. The bike has 60,000 miles. I paid 2,500 for the bike. I rebuilt the front fork with new fluid and seals/gaskets. I put on new headlights. I installed a replica gas tank from WWII. I replaced many electrical wires. I installed new digital odometer with RPMs. I rebuilt carburetors. I checked the engine and replaced the piston rings. Everything else with the engine is fine. I checked the transmission and all is fine, but I replaced the oil. I replaced the tires and rear shock absorbers. I replaced the seat and rear fender, front and rear turn signals, and stop/tail lights. I replaced the alternator and electronic display. I checked the brake pads and they are fine. I added new Triumph mufflers. Finally, I added many unique leather accessories and decorative touches. My costs include: gastank $380; new alternator and electronic parts $260; headlights $140; mufflers $200; heavy-duty battery $130; new shocks $80; seat $80; digital odometer/rpm $300; steering bar $40; front fork suspension repair kit $120; carburetor repair kit $40; cylinder piston ring and head gaskets $70; new Bridgestone tires $180; and other small parts but I don't remember the cost.
