View PostNo Reserve – 2006 BMW HP2 Enduro
Post Sale Update: This HP2 Enduro sold for $15,910 after 19 bids on eBay. One of the biggest issues with eBay is how easy it is for a seller to pull a bike early for any (in)valid reason. So it’s nice to see this seller, who guarantees his cool HP2 Enduro will be finding a new owner.
1968 BMW R69S
Post Listing Update: This R69S was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown. From a 1962 review in Cycle World: “Whatever the BMW’s merits in a contest of speed, it is still the smoothest, best finished, quietest and cleanest motorcycle it has ever been our pleasure to ride.

Ending Soon – 1975 BMW R90/6 Custom
Normally I don’t go for these types of customs, but I’m enjoying the matching pinstriping of the fenders and tank. Plus the bike’s been restored so you should be set mechanically. Highlights of the modifications include a custom Steiger seat, custom coilovers in the rear and Showa 40mm forks up front, Euro bars, and a rebuilt engine from a R100 …
German Triumph – 1956 TWN 125

A decade later, Bettman created another bicycle company in his hometown of Nuremberg – he called it the German Triumph Cycle Company. 7 years …

Fast forward four years and NSU introduced the Supermax, which featured a 18 horsepower single good for a top …
