Just made a delivery to a woman today. She had a 1969 BMW R60/2 in her garage. It hadn't been ridden in the year since her husband died She is having a garage sale and everything was for sale, including the bike. I asked her if it ran, and if so, if I could ride it. She said it did, and I was welcomed to. Sooooo. I ...put some gas in it, kicked it over 5 times, and it roared to life. AWESOME.
Soooo, she's selling the bike, but doesn't want to get ripped off, and I'm not in the market for the bike, as I don't have a permanent home, and travel for work.
So here are some photos guys. What do you all think? What is this bike worth? The electric lines going into the headlight bucket has been cut, the battery isn't present, but the bike started off the magneto (or whatever is in there). The boot from the motor to the drive shaft is cracked and duck taped. The brakes were slooooow to act. I shifted through 3rd, and about 50 mph, and it did fine. I'm not familiar with the transmission. But it seemed ok. It has nearly 50,000 miles. There is very minimal rust at all, and the gas tank interior seemed fine. The exhaust pipe has some holes in it, but not from rust. The turn signals are in a box, as are the gas tank side panels (rubber pieces). Any other questions?
