    This 1984 BMW R100RS is a very capable machine.  Prior to my ownership, it was owned by one family since new.  It's received a few very desirable upgrades along the way, notably, the period correct Supertrapp mufflers, lightweight starter and British Police style solo seat. The motorcycle has been fully serviced and is ready to ride, everything works as it should and I would not hesitate sending someone off across the country.

    1966 R69S BMW   Stunning condition museum quality R69S BMW .  Triple numbers matching.  Excellent restoration quality and in top condition today.  Beautiful bright chrome, newer tires, professionally polished aluminum.   Great running and ready to go anywhere.  The cosmetics are amazing as everything is exceptionally detailed.   Great paint and pin stripping.  The engine runs like new and has excellent compression.  I believe the drive train is rebuilt but I don't have any documentation.  The motor has no smoke on start up and while running sounds absolutely normal and healthy with that nice vintage BMW sound.  Oil seals are good and bike is dry underneath.  I would not be afraid to ride this bike coast to coast and having said that we have a commercial  airport nearby so a buyer could fly in and drive out with the bike.   The bike has some wear from saddle bags on the paint.  It is light and hard to see but it is there on shock towers and lightly on the fenders by the shock towers.    This is hard to see and you really have to look.  There are a few minor chips in the paint that are also hard to notice.  One chip is the earls swing arm another is the top of the fork coveror triple tree top plate.  Gas tank and headlight bucket are great nice paint and no dents.   Some battery acid stains on one exhaust. I am including a set of chrome passenger foot pegs as I lost one of the original passenger pegs from the bike.  I am also including some correct fuel line which I bought and never installed. The title states  the year of manufacture as 1966 If you have any questions please email them or call me at:  92O-2O5-OO13.
