BMW R-Series description

1974 BMW R90/6 with only 12,877 Original Miles !

I am listing this for a buddy in our Vintage Motorcycle Club.  

He has a couple other Vintage Bikes plus a Trike Project and needs to make room in his workshop. 


Great Bike - please take a close look.


Started with a Vetter Windjammer Faired, 900cc 5 Speed BMW Original Paint in White.  

Triple Matching Numbers – Frame, Motor and Neck Tag.


Vetter was removed and a period correct Wixom Fairing with Original Windscreen was sourced.  Wixom Fairing and Tour Pack were painted and striped to very closely match the Original BMW color. Fenders and Side Panels are still Original Paint. 


There are a couple scratches on the tank from taking the seat on/off – please see pics.


Drive Train is Stock with Original Carbs & Air Filter systems. 

Exhaust & Mufflers are in good shape. 

Tires are new with approx. 200 miles on them and Brakes are good.  


Starts & Runs well.  All Instruments, Lights and the Horn work as they should.  


I also own a 1974 R90/6 that I have ridden from Ohio to Daytona, Sturgis, Myrtle Beach, Blue Ridge, etc.  My R90 keeps up easily with “New Bikes” on the trips. 


I have personally ridden this White R90/6 and it performs as well as my bike does. 


Vetter Fairing and “All Day” Seat included in sale. 


Buyer agrees to $500.00 deposit through PayPal at conclusion of Auction and Balance to be paid by Wire Transfer to seller’s bank within 5 days of Auction close. Buyer may elect to pick up BMW @ seller location north of Cincinnati in Ohio, USA.  Buyer responsible for all shipping costs and related insurances.

Also being sold / offered locally. 


I will attempt to answer any questions you may have. 


Good Luck Bidding !

Epic biking holidays - of a lifetime?

Mon, 31 Jan 2011

I never had the rudimentary gap year traveling before university, seeing it as a bit of a cliché I set upon knuckling down with my studies and getting a degree. I never had that moment of discovery and finding out 'who I really am' and to some extent it's a regret. But I'm feeling inspired and the inspiration comes from two adventures offered by Compass Expeditions.

John Surtees to Lead Classic Vehicle Parade Fundraiser

Fri, 03 May 2013

Motorsports legend John Surtees will lead a parade of classic cars and motorcycles – including Surtees’ 1960 500cc Grand Prix Championship-winning MV Agusta – in his home town of Edenbridge, England. Surtees is the only person to have ever won world championships in both Grand Prix motorcycle racing and Formula One, and the parade will feature cars and bikes from his time as both a racer and a racing team owner. Surtees himself will drive the Team Surtees TS7, a F1 car constructed by his own team that debuted at the 1970 British Grand Prix at Brands Hatch.

2014 BMW R1200RT Spied Testing

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

With the new 2013 BMW R1200GS now launching worldwide, it really should be no surprise BMW is working on more models using the GS’s new liquid-cooled boxer engine. A contributor to French site MotoMag happened upon a crew of test riders on heavily camouflaged test mules of what appears to be the 2014 BMW R1200RT. The swirly camo pattern does little to hide the new “precision cooling” liquid-cooled engine, easily identified by the pipes exiting from the bottom of the cylinders.
