BMW R-Series description

Rare extremely low mileage classic black BMW with the small sport tank.  Originally a California bike.  Bought from 2nd owner.
Early model R90/6 (1/74 mfg date) with factory LWB modification - still has the alloy turn signals, optional kick starter, hash marks on the gauges 
Very, very clean, was dry stored since 2002. Just installed a new battery, new oil, air filters, cleaned carbs, new floats.
Needs nothing but a key cut for seat latch and perhaps tires. Included is a complete tuneup kit: points, plugs, carb rebuild kit, valve cover gaskets. Tank and fenders are sporting original paint. Side covers have either been repainted or just had decals removed. Have a set of decals on order.
Valve cover on left side has minor rash from a spill (possibly why it was put in storage) and a small scuff shows on the left side of the instrument cluster as shown in the pics. Some minor rust and pitting on the bars. Otherwise a very nice and complete example.
Starts first kick or at the touch of the button, idles quietly, runs, stops & shifts well. No leaks, no smoke, everything works - all of the mechanical and electrical is functioning well.

MINI Scooter E Concept Revealed

Thu, 23 Sep 2010

MINI has just officially revealed not one, but two of its MINI Scooter E Concepts that will officially debut at the Paris Auto Show next week. Created to bring together a youth-oriented lifestyle element and sustainable mobility, the scooters take significant design cues from the MINI lineup of cars while using a lithium-ion battery pack to deliver guilt-free mobility. Making the MINI E Scooter Concept almost excessively hip is its smartphone integration, where the owner’s iPod or similar device acts as the actual key for the scooter, clicking into a central docking station between the handlebars.
