1972 BMW R 75/5 A very nice classic airhead, it is mechanically sound and runs excellent. We have done the bike in a Café style. The project started with a Speedometer/Tachometer fresh rebuild by overseas speedo. The unit was had originally 38K before the rebuild. The motorcycle frame, swing arm, and sub-frame were then powder coated. The fender, fuel tank and other painted parts are recent and have been hand striped as originally done by the factory in 72. The engine runs great and is in very good condition. We cleaned up the top end and replaced all the gaskets and seals. A complete tune up included carburetor rebuild with new parts. Any new parts as needed, including a new wiring harness. All gaskets and seals were replaced, cylinder head, valve covers, push rod tubes etc. New fluids, and filters through out. The oil pan removed cleaned and a re-installed with new gasket. We installed a new main seal and while apart and installed a new oil pump O ring seal as well. All drive splines were cleaned inspected and lubed, including, clutch, transmission input, drive shaft, and rear wheel. A new clutch bell was installed as well. The Transmission has some new bearings, which were installed during inspection. A new Westco AGM battery was installed. We also installed new Progressive rear shock absorbers. The bike has Dunstall replica mufflers. We installed new Michelin tires and fresh tubes as well. The tires have been on since 5940 miles and are like new. The lighting all works, switches work as they should. All instruments work, speedometer, odometer, tachometer, brake lights, and turn signals. Rear brakes work as well as most airhead drum brakes did in 1972 We have included multiple pictures to show as accurately as possible the exact condition of the bike.
