Description 1979 bmw r100rs
great classic, stunning bike , I have spent a lot of time and money getting this bike running like a dream, it runs fantastic and I absolutely love it, this week I fitted brand new brembo rear master cylinder and all brake pipes, I have just serviced it with new oil, oil filter, k&n air filter, drive shaft oil, gear box oil, flushed out old brake fluid and replaced with castrol dot 4 mineral brake fluid, fitted new points and condenser, done the timing, cleaned and balanced the carbs, greased rear wheel splines, adjusted and grease clutch linkage, fitted brand new battery yesterday.On a recent 380 mile in one day trip the speedometer gave up at 20036 miles not the odometer just the needle stopped working, so replaced with a second hand unit which had 39812 miles on it , it now reads 40023 so actual milage is 20247, I have old speedo and you are welcome to it ,you may be have it repaired ,but the new speedo is really accurate and smooth so I would keep as is, there are many mot's to back up milage so I believe it to be true. last year the clutch plate was renewed and the clutch is nice ,gear box is smooth and it run great, really is a fun bike to ride, I will miss it .
there has been lots of other bits and bobs done. this is a proper classic to ride not leave in a garage, I would get on it and ride off to Europe tomorrow, ride so straight and solid.
on the fairing there are obviously a few age related marks ,it is after all 37 years old but looks beautiful.
feel free to ask questions .
cash on collection .
cheers
