Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE We have a lot of time, effort and money into listing this motorcycle on ebay. Please be respectful of that and do not bid until you have read the entire description/terms of the auction and are certain that you intend to follow through with the sale. Your bid is a contract to buy. We have the listing set up to accept bids only from US bidders in an effort to prevent scammers from ruining the auction. If you are a legitimate bidder outside of the US and you have a way to have the bike picked up at our location without it being crated, e-mail Chris at chris@motoworkschicago.com. Provide him with your ebay ID and confirm that you can arrange international shipping and have the bike picked up uncrated at our location in Chicago, and he will add you to the list that allows you to bid. This very rare and classy Beemer had the engine and transmission rebuilt by Craig Vechorik of Bench Mark Works. It is a matching numbers bike with the correct stampings on everything, including carbs. It is in excellent restored condition. It has been ridden since the restoration, but it's hard to tell. It has a fresh battery, everything is in tune, and it is ready to ride. It was painted using the paint code for GM's Buick Frost Beige, which some argue is a good match to the original Dover White. Others suggest it is more beige than the original. Either way, this is a beautiful bike with all the correct and very rare parts. It is ready to ride or to show. There are 50 clickable thumbnails below detailing the condition of the bike. If you click on the pictures again after they open, they get even larger. Please look at all of them carefully and ask any questions you have before bidding. You can call Chris at 312-878-8711, e-mail him at chris@motoworkschicago.com, or contact us through ebay. The bike is located at Motoworks in the city of Chicago. If you are local and would like to see it in person, please call 312-878-8711 to set up an appointment.
