bought a new BMW

God, that is mouth-watering.

That looks awesome! How comfortable is it?

Its perfect for what i want it for. Its not a road bike for sure. This is the only bike i can own. Something snaps in my head when i get on something fast and I turn into a moron. I would be dead in a week on a rocket. You dont even want to drive this thing fast. I just put around town with it. so for that its fine. I wouldnt want to drive it more than a 100 miles at a time i dont think. Its quirky and fun. I love old shit

[blunttech]

Blunt thats awesome man. I've had many dreams about owning one of those. I dont even ride. I really have no interest in riding either, except for one of these. No kidding about a soft market either! Thats a steal man.

Great Bike. I bought my first BMW bike at the height of the economy and couldn't afford the R60 series so had to settle for a later r75 model. Too bad I'm not in a position now to "steal" an R60 series. ;)

Love to kickstart it. It gives such a retro feel to it. Also like the fact that there are no hydraulic brakes, fuse box, halogen, etc. It truly gives it that "classic" feel.

hahahaha!


Nice bike. There used to be a BMW motorcycle shop in my town that was a dealer since the 40's. He had so many BMW motorcyle parts NOS sitting in the attic and storage rooms. They just closed up last year. I wish I knew what the guy did with all of the inventory.

I think your morphing into CD.

Why did you think I asked if you'd be my dad? That bike? Ha!

[Spiff325iS]

Awesome! That bike looks MINT.

My father hand built an R75/5 out of 3 junked r75's.. hand polished/buffed/cleaned/assembled everything. Only thing he didn't do was paint the fenders.







Do you have any plans for yours?

[RedStar240]

Beautiful!!! I WANT ONE!!! How much did you get it for?

love the white. Ive been reading lots on these and learned that back in the 60's and 70's you could order certain bikes in many colors BMW was using on the cars. Like verona and riviera on the 02's. I would have loved a white r69s. They look really sweet and are more rare

[E-Thirty]

Gorgeous. Must be cool starting that thing up. :p
