Description

I have for sale a stunning 1968 R60US motorcycle with only 1704 miles. This motorcycle was initially sold to Green Motor Sales in Plainview. TX as demonstrated by the Butler & Smith Statement of account. nvoice Statement and the Manufacturers Statement of Origin card. Pictures included and will go to the new owner. The envelopes the documents came in are also included but not pictured. Green Motor Sales went out of business and the owner of High Plains BMW purchased the motorcycle for his personal collection. He then sold the motorcycleto my friend Bob Fowler. It sat in his collection until his death in 2011. when I purchased the motorcycle in 2002 his widow had went to the DMV and had a bonded Title made for the motorcycle. Since there was no previous owner on record this protected the motorcycle from being claimed by anyone else. She also signed and had notorized a statement of fact that validates this account. I personally know the owner of defunct High Plains BMW. The lucky winner of the motorcycle will be supplied his name address and phone # at auction end to validate the statement of facts on the history of this motorcycle. The pictures help show the superior condition of this motorcycle. Yes there are a few minor paint scratches as expected on a 47 year old motorcycle. The right hand grip has some cracks in the rubber at the endcap. I think these may be original tires. No cracking due to proper storage. No nicks in the rims. Paint is shiny and a small touch up on the rear fender below where a battery leaked acid years ago. The documentation helps validate the nature of this motorcycle and claims made. The manufacturers of Origin card was never given to the owner when purchasing from the dealers. I could go on and on decscribing the condition of the motorcycle but the pictures will do my talking. I just hosed it down and wiped it off. It will come with a spit shine if desired . Will talk to the purchaser as his request. I can deliver within 250 miles of Abilene. TXfor gas money. Leave a phone # and a good time to talk if you need more information. This motorcyce has a 7 digit VIN. BMW started this with the US market and was verifird by Vech at Bench Mark Works. On Feb-26-15 at 12:41:53 PST. seller added the following information:This is a completely original down to the last nut and bolt. Original paint in excellent condition. Chrome shines ans aluminum is clean and not oxidised. No nicks or blemishes in the rims. You cannot buy one and restore to this condition for less than my reserve.

The occasional run through the paces keeps seals fresh and metal parts lubricated. I personally know the previous 2 owners so I knw the history of this bike for at leasst the last 30 years. A R60/2just sold on Ebay for $6250 with a locked up motor. item # 161605520249 . Shipping. aint and a rebuild will put you close to the reserve of my bike without the time consuming effort.
