BMW R-Series description

Got this bike over twenty years ago and shortly after decided to restore it. when i got it it had rusted exhaust,short in the electrical system and all sorts of there issues...
I went with stainless steel exhaust,new cables,wheels were sent out and came with stainless spokes,new tires , cylinder heads were updated to a needle bearings style rocker arms,new rings ,reseated valves ,powder coated frame,new clutch ,all new cables, polished forks,powder coated seat base .....
When i got the bike it had  17k miles and it had sat outside for a while so it needed most of what was done to it.I went to DMV and the did all the paperwork and of course the title came back with 725550k miles They said that they needed to see the bike to correct it well it was apart so that never got done...
The title says 72555miles the odometer with a broken needle says 24565
The bike will need tires,battery,rubber grips you decide....
It will run and it started on the third kick after sitting 4 years. I was just kicking it to get the oil going before starting it an there it went so with the jumper battery all the electrics work.
All in all it can be an easy restoration project and a nice ride for the summer...
I would like to see it gone since it is not getting used and it is a waste..
Have way too many other bikes and this one just sits in the barn collecting dust.

South West Motorcycle Show 2010, August 28th & 29th

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

Need something to do on August Bank Holiday weekend, then read below: "Although the South West Motorcycle Show has been running at the Westpoint Arena for the last sixteen years, 2010 is the first year that the show hosts the all-new Vertical Trix European Stunt Championship. The show contains all the usual attractions that have been delivered to motorcyclists from over the south-west and further afield since 1994 – including all the appropriate trade stands, and with strong support from local dealers – plus attractions such a a dyno on site, restaurant, bar, bike displays, live music and of course the live action arena. Although the action in the show arena has previously been stunt displays, rather than a full-on competition.

BMW S1000RR at Nürburgring [video]

Wed, 02 Sep 2009

BMW’s new S1000RR is one of the mostly highly anticipated sportbikes to come along in years. Its four-cylinder motor has a larger bore than anything else in its 1000cc class, plus all the latest racetrack goodies like a slipper clutch, variable-height intake manifolds and traction control. We’re still a few months away from testing it for ourselves, but we can across this great video that will give you a little insight into how this Beemer howls at top speed.
