Greetings,
I am new to this forum, so hello to all.
I am selling my R90s because I am no longer able to ride it. (back injury).
I have been riding for over 35 years and sadly it's time to stop.
The BMW is Daytona Orange, is a 9 out of 10, and is stock. I have a few mods (deep dish oil pan, stainless braded brake lines etc.) but have the original parts.
The bike lived in Oceanside Ca. untill it came to me in 1997.
It has the original tool kit, MANY spare parts and memorabilia. I would like to sell it all together.
This is the model that Reg. Pridmore rode (73,74,75) To the National Superbike Championships. It is very nice. I have kept it in like new condition. It was adult owned. I have documentation back to 1988. I have the original Ca. Plate.
I can not say enough about how well this bike rides/handles, and I am sorry to have to sell it. I only rode it 300 mi. last Summer, and for someone who has ridden over 150K miles to many Ralleys Nationwide, I must say it will be sad to see it go. It needs to be ridden. If anyone is interested, I will send photos.
It is rare, has the original ceramic BMW logos, and hand pinstriped tank, faring, seat and fenders. The front fender has a few small stress carcks, but I have a new NOS painted fender to go with the bike. I will include a new windshield of buyers choice. It also has the original Krauser bags. I am asking $5500, but will let it go for less to a good home (someone who will ride it). Ride Safe.
Thanks, JIM

Pix. of the R90s

Hello again,
I am not sure how to post pix. I am new to this, besides when I was supose to be learnin' this computer stuff, I was out riding!!
The bike is located at Zip 05491. (Vermont). If anyone is interested, send me an email, and I will send pix. [email protected]
Anyone who went to the BMWMOA National rallye in Midland Mi. the bike was there on display with several other R90S's
I would not be afraid to jump on and ride to LA, but my back will no longer allow me to ride Cafe style. The bike is a great vintage ride (handles better than most new bikes) and is not going down in value.
Thanks, JIM

Hello again,
Is anyone interested for $5K???
If kept as nice as it currently is, I will buy it back anytime for this price.
It really needs a new home.

How about $4.5K?

Hello again. I am going to offer the BMW for $4.5K. Any interest?
I can no longer ride, so I will sell the bike, and will accept near offer.
I will send pix. to anyone interested.
It is a BMW and will last, and last, and last, and for a 75 will outhandle most bikes out there .... if you can ride. They can outrun you on the sterights, but you will reel them in on the curves. :cheers:
Thanks, JIM 802-759-2574
