And, NICE BIKE!!!! How can I get my 1974 R90/6 to be as quiet as this one?? The valve train clatter is a little excessive! And It's all gone through... Clearances are perfect.
God, I love that sound. My dad had the dover white R60 and I had the R69S. Sometimes, in the countryside when we drove together. It sounded like an airplane. I will for ever love those older BMW motorcycles. Thank you for posting this clip. I give you 100,000 STARS.
I like white it just stands out from the other BMW. When i was sixteen i hand panted ( spray can ) a 1962 blue Honda dream and later found out it was hondas rarest color. Oh well.
my buddy sent me this video and said it was ugly but cool, so after I watched it........ I had to go over to his place and kick the livin shit out of his stupid ass fag self.
my dad had one of these , borght it back from germanyy , used to sit in the garage for about 5 yearss , and then we got to run this thing but it was hard to find spare parts so it ran for about a dayyy , shamee because now its goneee
really a great bike!! since last saturday, 03. January 2009, we also ride one of this great bikes but as a sidecar and the colour design is not in the vintage style. We loved it from the first sight on.
Mitch, Thanks for the comments. It was basically salvage and left to rot for 20 years. Took me 8 months of obsession and about $13,000 to get it to this condition. EVERYTHING was rebuilt, refinished but mostly replaced. A labor of love and I'm happy I did it. Thanks, Mark
Hello crocostimpy. The grab rail is from ebayer "bluemoonscooter". It's a nice addition when I had put the passenger pillion on. Something for them to grab onto. Also, nice to hold when starting or maneuvering around in the garage. Thanks, bmwresto.
You're quite welcome!!! Glad you enjoyed it.

It was a motorcycle and the type that an older brother valued,
but the thing of an older brother was black in old days. I think
that it is the highest peak of the orthodox school motorcycle.
I thank for an animation of this place. Thank you very much.

I once owned BMW R69S, ex-police bike, the best motorcycle i have ever owned.
I don´t like to drive fast but 120KM per hour was very comfortable on this motorcycle.
I hope i can upload in a few months time some TV shots of it.

Cheers Mark, you have done well to get this kind of result in 8 months, I have seen similar projects taking a good deal longer.
Good luck with any future restorations as this kind of talent is rare nowadays.
ride safely, regards, mitch.
