Great bikes!!

My favorite bike I have, My 1940 BMW R12 Military.. one of my 3 wartime BMW Rigs.

 

I started on a Vespa scooter in 1967 and then a BSA 250 , Yamaha 650 , Harley Sportster , 2 Suzuki Intruders which took me to 2003 when I stopped riding. I still have a license in case the urge ever kicks in again.

Thanks... it is a never ending project. The bike had a hard life and is matching numbers so it was worth saving to me. It took almost 3 years and many Thousands of $$$ to go from many boxes of parts to a 95% original and correct bike. I am still buying and searching for a few parts to make it 100% correct. I expect to have it to 100% original over the next 2 years which will make it the only Grade 1 (great)(European Bike Restoration Standard) Military R12 in the world.

 

BTW... it will be featured in the next issue of the Vintage BMW Motorcycle Magazine.

The BMW is amazing! Great Bug Out Bike haha

Yea, I don't know if I can post my Yamaha after that Beemer. Someone post something else.

 

I am not worthy.

If it's got two wheels and an engine.....you are riddin'.

Thanks Dude. It was lots and lots of work. I figure that 99% of people have no clue of what it takes to go on a treasure hunt for parts and then restore everything to working condition. There are maybe 500 max. of these bikes left out of 37,600 and about 13,600 had the "rare" military parts.You can find a bike for sale from time to time but you will never find all of the original military parts on one like mine has.

And here I am thinking it would be hard to fix up a 1970 Honda. Nice one for sale near me but I don't want to have to scrounge.

 

Anyway, here is the bike I tried to sell 3 times and got cold feet each time.

 

I ride a Vespa to work every day, sorry, no pictures.

Seriously? And not afraid to be run over? Where do you live?

You're not the guy who rides into the city across the Turnpike extension are you? That guy is either really bold or insane, or just a bit of both.

here's mine

 

I ride my silver Vespa from East Brunswick to Keyport . Its a 12 mile journey along Rt. 516 each way...I have had Honda's and Harley's most of my life. Now , since the gas prices went up 4 years ago, I went for economy, and bought the scooter. I get 90 MPG. So , I use about a gallon and a half per week.....

I haven't seen a Vespa in a long time , I owned a Vespa 150 with sidecar great scooter. I hated the color, orange and white.

My brothers R1 up front and my Busa in back. Sorry for the crappy pic!

 

So when is the NJGF ride ?

OK, looks like i may have to go buy a bike..

I have a small vintage motorcycle workshop in Hillsdale. Some of the customer bikes became mine. I think I own 8 or 9 right now. only 2 are in non running condition. In my prime, I had two employees but ever since the economy went south, people stopped buying parts or having parts cleaned, etc. Now it is just a big hobby. Great place to cast lead, too.

 

Here are a few of my bikes. Sorry for the HUGE pics. :shifty:

 

2nd Bike a BSA?
