BMW R60/5 1972
$7,500
Description
BMW R60/5 in very good condition. Has been partnered with a European built sidecar. Bike was imported from Canada as new and I am about the 4th owner. The mileage is in miles not km. The sidecar has been expertly fitted and is solid fixed at 4 points - no flexing with ball joints. The bike has been stripped down a few thousand miles ago and everything was checked and found in great condition - some gaskets were replaced. My brother fitted it with Dell Orto Italian carberettors to give it some extra zip. I have had it connected to a car battery housed in the sidecar as these motors take some turning over. Starts first press on the starter. This is a 4 speed bike and pulls the sidecar with ease. I have done 2 recent rallies and cruise comfortably at 55mph. The sidecar is comfortable and sized for the bike. It is sprung and braked. A great little bike rapidly increasing in rarity and value coupled with a great little sidecar. Lots of fun for a collector and enthusiast. Happy for anyone to view or test ride. All extras including, bikini fairing, crash bars, original Bing carbs, American sports petrol tank and hood for sidecar are included with Buy Now.
