Running and rideable Project Bike.
We got this BMW in on a trade-in and don't have time immediately to give it the end-to-end deep service that we do on most BMWs that we sell.
We have rebuilt the carburetors tuned the motor and changed oil and filter on the motor and changed the gear oil on the transmission driveshaft and final drive.
Since it takes special tools to fix the weak spring on the transmission shifter we went ahead and pulled the transmission opened it up cleaned and inspected fixed the shifter spring installed all new seals and resealed the back cover.
While we had it out we pulled the clutch and flywheel and installed a new rear main seal and oil pump o'ring.
We cleaned and inspected the clutch and installed a stronger more reliable rear pressure ring.
While we had the swingarm loose for the transmission work we went ahead and serviced both the front and rear wheelbearings another specialized job needed on most older BMWs.
Because both tires were very old and cracked we mounted and balanced a newer set of used Metzeller tires while we had the wheels off the bike.
Matching VIN numbers clear title.
Has Ignition Key / Light switch knob but does not have flat key to lock steering neck or seat.
Starts easily runs well.
Needs battery and the rest of a Major Service.
Some oil leaks from pushrod tube seals on left should be fixed before extended miles.
Both original BMW Cigar shaped /5 mufflers are rotting out on the bottom.
We have made a very temporary patch on the mufflers with several layers of aluminum tape so we could test ride the bike.
Blue paint rather faded on the tank.
The rear of seat has tape patch; needs re-covered.
The rear seat hinge needs replaced.
Bike has a tool tray no tool kit.
The clutch works well and the transmission shifts well.
Now that we have fixed the things that required special tools or special skills and knowledge somebody mechanically handy should easily be able to get this bike to dependable travel-worthy condition.
