Re-watched this. Even commented 14 years ago. My K1100rs has gone but my trusty R100/r remains…. along with an R26. Hope you’re still riding and enjoying that beautiful machine.

Nice. Unusual to have original fuel taps. I think they had cork seals. Spark plug caps also original pattern. Mufflers are a more modern design, great if you got the much more tapered end ones. Classic keeper

The best part of riding my 1968 R60 was the 'clunky' when I put in 1st gear. Either these are brand new tires (see the front tire especially) or this bike is rarely ridden.

Have a look to your valves! Perhaps too much freeplay only, but I would expect that there is more. BMW Twins are well known for their smooth mechanical noises. Yours sounds like awfull.

I had a 72 R60/5. They had electric starters starting in 1970. Perhaps you are not aware of that extra button on the handlebars. It is the starter.

my goodness, by the time you check everything like you did i would think twice about even riding it. too much boogie. i've had 3 /5's and have run so low on oil that there was nothing showing on the stick. still they always kept on ticking. your bike does seem very ticky though. perhaps a tightening of the valves?
@Ethanooooool2 жыл бұрын
he maybe did it for the video. Also i agree about the ticking, something seems off

I have a 1971 R75/5 BMW.....they are a joy to ride. I've had 5 different R75/5's over the years. The 1971 Short Wheel Base is my favorite. They are simple to maintain and easy to work on if needed...….but they DO require maintenance and attention.

Hi Kevin, nice video, I can see you take good care of this beauty, I would only do one thing different, I wouldn´t step on the kickstarter like you do it on a Harley, it´s aluminun, it´s easier to mount on the bike, step with the right leg on the right peg and give it a kick with the left leg, hope you don´t get me wrong, just trying to help. Also we´ll appreciate it if you make a longer riding video, thanks for posting.

Rode a R60/2 for 30,000 miles and the group I rode with all started our bikes as shown in the video. That cast aluminum kick starter never broke on any of the bikes in our group. We did have a side mount kick stand which made it easer to kick start from the side.

It's the right thing to do, starting with left foot. If you pend your weight to the right the bike will fall to the right side and you'll go over it.

Kevin Fagerberg i dont think it was a replica in the sense of todays replica's.. . when it crashed they said it had just received historical status only months earlier..it was sad...they said it was one of so many left of the ones that were made.

I saw a TV show about plane crashes and they showed one at an air show that crashed because someone forgot to take a strap off the rudder or something. I think that one they said was a replica. It must be a different crash. I would not be surprised if it is on KZbin. There are other videos of the one I flew in on KZbin. Its been in movies.

Kevin Fagerberg Hi, I found the article on the crash of the tin goose on put in bay island) pretty simple ,on google just type in > island airlines tin goose crashes on take off) or ( tin goose crash on put in bay island).. theres a picture of the news paper article with the plane.. it is authentic and reads somtething like.. historic plane crashes on take off due to mechanical difficulty and hits utility pole.. the plane was used to ferry people from the mainland to the island. and that day had ferried 90 people.. (from me god knows why they were still using it).. and it goes on- when they were made ,how many left, and how many were in museums.. kevin its a good article , not to big,its worth looking up. I envy you for having ridden in one.. Those are true history, nostalgia and just Wow.
