     Up for bidding is a 1973 BMW R60 / 5 motorcycle.  This motorcycle was from an estate, found in the back of the garage covered by a mountain of bankets.  Apparently, the bike was running well when last driven, sometime about 3-4 years ago.  There is no battery, so we haven't tried to start it.  The wheels roll freely, engine isn't frozen or anything, seems to have compression when kicking, there are no drips/leaks, tires are decent and hold air well, it does come with the keys.  The title was issued to the owner in 1980, and he had it ever since.   That's 36 years with the same owner, a buyers dream.  The odometer reads 97671, and the BMW dealer sticker from the last oil change, on the inside rear fender,  reads 97409.  So, I believe the mileage is probably accurate, and there's no reason to think that the bike wouldn't still run fine.  I can see that the right side cover is missing, but otherwise this bike looks to be pretty complete.  It even has the original tool kit and users manual under the seat. All of the lights/lens are good, except for the tail light lens which has been slightly broken.  The seat is in great shape, with no rips or tears.  I took a lot of pictures, so that you'd get a good idea of the bikes overall condition. If you're looking at this bike, you know how rare these "Toasters" are becoming, as they only made them for a couple of years.  I am listing the bike with a very reasonable starting price, well below current NADA blue book values for this model, and the high bidder will get to take this home.   Looking at part prices for this bike, I would guess that one could even just part it out and make a tidy profit.  In my opinion, this is not by any means just a parts bike.  This should be given some tlc and ridden!!  This is a NO RESERVE auction.  I have 100% LIFETIME feedback as a seller, so no worries here.   Please ask any questions BEFORE bidding, and please don't bid if you haven't already got the money to complete the sale.  I will be glad to assist any shipper, if one is used.

BMW Announces Recall Campaign for K1600 Family Motorcycles

Fri, 25 Feb 2022

The recall concerns all 2019-2020 BMW K1600 models due to the risk of rear suspension link failure caused by a manufacturing defect - the strength of the part does not meet the factory requirements. This linkage may be destroyed during normal road use, causing the rear of the motorcycle to fall onto the rear wheel. BMW dealers this spring will begin notifying owners of motorcycles that are subject of the recall campaign to visit an authorized dealership for a rear suspension linkage replacement.

BMW introduced the production version of the CE 04 electric scooter

Thu, 08 Jul 2021

The BMW CE 04 stands out from the crowd primarily for its futuristic appearance, which clearly echoes the previously demonstrated concept.

BMW Motorrad has shown what can be built around the in-line "two" from the middle "goose" F850GS

Tue, 26 Jun 2018

The 9Cento is a sports tourer with crossover features, and its appearance evokes associations of Italian design. So, for example, the short sportbike “tail” unobtrusively resembles the upturned, stunningly beautiful stern of Ducati Panigale sportbikes. The motorcycle is built on the basis of an in-line two-cylinder engine from the BMW F850GS, and we would not completely rule out the possibility of such a handsome man appearing in the production program.

BMW showed the electric scooter of the future

Fri, 05 May 2017

Motorrad Concept Link is a two-wheeled gadget that understands its owner. An electric propulsion system with a traction battery located in the lower part of the “body” and a motor that transmits traction to the rear wheel via a belt drive is far from the most remarkable aspect of the concept. For example, it has a stretched wheelbase and reverse gear.

Sportbike BMW S1000 RR received a turbocharger and almost 300

Fri, 06 Jan 2017

This formidable "bimmer" appears to have stylistic differences from the standard bike, although the main thing in it is not the design, it’s the technical stuffing. It turns the S1000 RR into a real rocket, dominating all the standard "1-litres". The master decided to increase the power and traction by installing a turbocharger!

New naked BMW spotted on track days

Sat, 03 Sep 2016

The future generation of the "1-liter" naked BMW S1000R was spotted during the development tests on the territory of the German racing "ring" Oschersleben. Apparently, the Bavarian streetfighter will receive a number of technical solutions that his older brother, the BMW S1000RR, was endowed with a couple of years ago. Just as the current generation of the SR was created on the base of the previous SR-era, the 2017 modification will actually become a stripped version of today's sportbike.
