Summary:
Used 1973 BMW R-series 19,200 miles
Location:
Whittier, CA
Description:
Iâm the third owner of this bike; it's got the " Toaster" tank and it âs the Long Wheelbase version.the wheelbase is 3â longer than normal for improved handling. The first owner rode it infrequently for the 35 years he owned it. His son sold it without riding it when his father died. The second owner is a good friend of mine who rebuilds bikes as a hobby; he stripped off a few aftermarket parts and rebuilt/replaced what few parts of the bike needed that. He rode it for fewer than 1000 miles. I bought it from him as my FIRST BIKE. The entire bike is as it was when it rolled off the assembly line (including a complete rebuild of the final drive a couple weeks ago) with 3 exceptions:1) The ignition system and wire set have just been shifted to electronic ignition. It âs an EME EDL-BOIGNS Digital ignition system to replace the unreliable mechanical system of âcondenser and points â that get out of perfect alignment fairly soon after tuning and begin causing the engine to misfire. The changes are completely internal and not visible even to the trained eye.2) the handlebar is a narrower one that was only sold standard in Europe, not in the U. S.3) the left mirror is an aftermarket one, longer than normal, to permit the rider to see behind him. Important safety measure!4) the installed seat is custom, but the original comes with the bike. I removed it to have it restored, but couldn ât find someone trustworthy to do the work (flaky, didn ât follow up with me). Still available at ListedBuy!
