1977 BMW r100rs, ser. # 6181043; first year for the iconic rs. My father purchased it in 1978 from the original owner and it became mine 1982. 19,403 actual miles; mechanically excellent and all original with no modifications except k75s bars for a more up-right riding position; original bars are included. Recent work/parts, over $3,500, includes: * New OEM mufflers (have originals if buyer wants), cross pipe and one exhaust header * Carbs rebuilt by Bing Agency * Clock refurbished by Palo Alto * Fuel taps/lines * New Bosch coils * Period correct Continentals/tubes * New head lamp relay and front brake light switch * Front pads replaced * One new front rotor * Newer push rod tube seals, * Newer OEM battery (always on tender) * New drive shaft boot * Fork oil change * Yearly oil/filter change regardless of mileage * New OEM windshield plus two touring windshields, each progressively taller In addition to the above, all regular/routine service done by certified BMW mechanic at BMW Motorcycles Detroit. General condition: always garaged, never down; all original paint; no dents in the tank, minor scratches; fairing issues as depicted in pictures. Original Krauser panniers in good condition; tire pump and tool bag included. Cosmetic condition is consistent with a 40 year old, well cared-for, cosmetically unrestored air head. My focus has always been on a perfectly running, mechanically sound machine-- it runs like it did when originally delivered and will cruise all day long at whatever speed you feel comfortable. Cosmetic restoration makes this a low mileage rs a "10". Perhaps not the lowest mileage '77 rs in existence, but the lowest I've seen for sale in recent history. Bike is located near Detroit. Clear Michigan title. Buyer responsible for shipping; I will assist in any reasonable way. No warranties expressed or implied; bike is to be sold as-is/where-is. Available for inspection. Pay Pal or wire transfer before bike is released. $500.00 deposit required within 24 hrs of winning bid. Good luck!
