Ultra nice matching numbers BMW R26.
The R26 model has never been officially imported into the United States, making them very hard to find! These old 250cc BMW Singles have become very collectible because of their dependability and parts availability. This particular motorcycle will for sure be serving many more generations in the time to come.
As serious and correct ones are getting hard to find, get one before the price will become completely unreachable. -This 61 year old R26 has spent most of its life in tropical Suriname (South America) and was shipped to the Netherlands back in 1996. A few years ago the complete bike has been restored to high standards, where many $$$ have been spent on this process.
To give an idea; the engine has been fully rebuilt (including the complete charging/ignition system, see photo's). The wheels have new wheel bearings, spokes tires installed (where their original 'Weinmann' high-shoulder aluminum rims have been restored). The complete electrical wiring is new, as well as all the control cables.
Furthermore the paint is completely new, where the white pinstriping is painted (thus no vinyl tape! ). With the bike is a comprehensive folder that also holds all the parts-invoices (see photos), plus the tire pump and a nice double seat complete with a set of rear footrests (can be fitted at no extra charge).
The odometer reading is 11505 km / 7163 mile, only have no history with the bike to check whether this reading is correct. The instrument is original to the bike and works fine. After it was restored, the bike has been thouroughly tested, but was not been used anymore in order to keep it like it is. To make sure that it can be used without a problem, I have just renewed the engine
oil, as well as the oil of the gearbox and rear bevel-drive.
Along with this I have also fitted a new (high quality) battery. It is starting at first kick and runs ever so nice and strong. Also out on the street it handles like it did on day one, where everything works like should. Clean title.

1967 Aermacchi Harley-Davidson Sprint ERS Replica Full fiberglass fairing, gas tank and seat.
Tank has been sealed with Caswell's tank sealer. Neverthesless I typically use only non-ethanol fuel with this bike. She is also fitted with clip-on bars and adjustable rear sets. The bike is light weight and handles like a dream. The bike is track
ready and safety wired, yet it is also street legal and has a clear California title plus current registration. The headlight is in the nose of the fairing and there is a side mount tail light/license plate bracket behind the right rear shock. The electrical system is OEM with a new voltage regulator and new battery.
Wheels are shouldered Excel alloy rims with stainless spokes. The front brake is a dual leading shoe unit from a 1973 Sprint that stops like a disc with one finger operation. New rear shocks and a gold race chain. The motor is a 1968 250cc short stroke with around 180 miles on it. It was built with a new top end, piston, valves and guides. The bike was stored for about three
years and only came out for photo shoots, dealership display and movies or commercials. The bike starts easy and runs great. It is serviced and ready to go. The bike comes with the parts and service manuals.
This is a chance to own a collector's one of a kind motorcycle.

the gas was drained when the bike was put up for storage. Bike was up for storage for a few years. Bike is not perfect, plastic has some scratches. Bike turns over, has spark, and shifts thru the gears. This bike I heard it run. Look at pics for condition. Bike probably needs a good carb cleaning and some TLC. The tank has
no dents and is clean inside. The numbers match on this bike also. The plastic appears to be original besides the front oval. The bike is sold AS-IS!

Up for sale is my Ducati 750GT.
Titled as 1973 but is in fact a late 1972 according to vin number. Here is what i know of the history of bike. Original Black color with one repaint back in early 90's. Paint shows very well. Few small blemishes. See photos. I've bought this from the 4nd owner some 1 year ago. Title is free and clear! I was told
the milage on title which states 46690 was a typo and never corrected. You can see on title where it may be a typo. Milage on clock states 10,870 is the correct milage. But can't confirm any of this. So selling as milage unknown. Hard to believe that in 1981 when title was issued that the bike had 46690 miles in this condition.
Especially when its still on original tires with decent thread. Anyway stating milage unknown. Original fiberglass tank, early Lockheed Brakes, CEV lights, Conti exhaust(small ding on right silencer)see photo, Borrani Rims, Metzeler Tires(some dry rot from age), Marzocchi Forks and Shocks, Smith Gauges, Tommaselli Throttle(small crack.does not affect operation).
Dell Orto carburetors. Handle bars are KN that were installed back in the 80's from previous owner. I do not have the originals sorry. Otherwise all original equipment and all working.
Recently serviced which includes, new battery, rebuilt carbs, cleaned and inspected tank. Which was sealed back in 80's from previous owner. No leaks whatsoever! Small scuff that was repainted on tank where it meets front of seat. See photo. Carbs tuned and oil changed. Brakes are in perfect condition and stops on a dime! Bike runs perfectly and sounds amazing.2 small tears on either side of front of seat. See photos.

When we hear about custom Cafe Racers, most of the attention goes into their aggressive stance and eye catching appearance.
These bikes can really stand out among the rest of your standard dealership purchased motorcycles. However, looks cannot be everything on a custom build. Above all, a properly built machine will go through a full rebuild
process, top to bottom. This takes time, patience, and knowledge. Taking a diamond in the rough and not only polishing, but reviving the mechanics to that of when these rolled out of Germany, is our ultimate goal. This one-of-a-kind custom BMW R100RS airhead is our latest cafe racer/bobber design ready for the road.
Our vision was to create a unique cafe racer that had an aggressive presence with modern ergonomics, while retaining it âs timeless vintage esthetic. This RS takes advantage of its racing roots with the introduction of dual compound street tires in comparison to our knobby adventure tires on our other bobber style motorcycles. These tires will allow for smooth cornering
and confidence in those twisty turns. We have also introduced our custom fabricated seemless exhaust system to this example. Shortened by about 6" from our standard exhaust system, this new design brings a tighter appearance to the drivetrain.
We removed the baffles for maximum airflow that delivers a very impressive exhaust sound. The end result is a brilliantly eye catching machine that will almost always turn even the most experienced riders heads. The lowered front suspension and clip-on style handlebars really brings an aggressive yet streamline appearance and function to this build. The engine was disassembled and underwent a complete rebuild of all components. The tank was
painted in our signature 9000 black base coat with a multi-stage high gloss clear coat.
The front suspension was rebuilt of seals, lowering springs, fork oil, and bump stops. The Brembo calipers were refinished, fresh brake pads were installed with stainless steel brake lines by Core Moto. The old original wiring for this machine was completely removed and replaced with an M-Unit Blue by Motogadget. This component is the main brain and bus for the entire electrical system of the machine. No more fuses! No more starter, load shed, horn, or flasher relays are needed. With the introduction of the M. unit Blue, this device provides bluetooth connectivity from your smartphone to your motorcycle.
This turns your motorcycle into a Smart bike! GPS tracking enabled, alarm systems that notify your phone if your bike is touched or tampered with. Completely customizable presets to change every aspect of the bikes lights, auxiliaries, and functions. Best of all this device has a " Keyless-Go" feature that turns your cellphone into your key fob! When you walk away from your bike the blinkers will flash letting you know the bike has locked itself and cannot be started. As you approach your bike, the blinkers will flash twice letting you know that the system is unlocked and ready to go!
Never forget your keys again, and if you forget your phone, no problem. There is a dedicated OEM BMW turn key on the right side of the engine for normal turn key function. This machine truly is one of a kind and there is not another one like it on any road.
