8.401 – 2011 BMW S1000RR Turbo
8.401 is the number of seconds that this bike has ate up a quarter mile in the past. Thanks to some serious work including a DaVinci Turbo, PS2000 ECU, and VP100 race fuel, this is one of the fastest S1KR’s you’ll find. With that said, you could turn down the tune and run it on E85 and still have something …

The seller of this bike may have agreed, which is why this GS features …
Original Paint – 1975 BMW R90S
Post Listing Update: This R90S sold for $10,102 after 21 bids on eBay. They say that a vehicle is only original once – thanks to the distinctive paint that is nearly impossible to replicate, that saying is very apt with the R90S.

1982 BMW R100/7

Everything works, there’s no leaks – and the paint is so good it’s …

OK, this is going to need a little bit of an explanation, because most people think Triumph is an English motorcycle company. They’d be right, but they might not realize that the company was started as a bicycle manufacturer by a German named Siegfried Bettman in 1886. A decade later, Bettman created another bicycle company in his hometown of Nuremberg …
