I think the 10.5 gallon Heinrich fuel tank ruins the lines of this bike, but it’s hard to argue with the range capabilities of this restored BMW R75/5.
This short wheelbase /5 (VIN: 2971505) has less than 4,000 miles since a complete rebuild and mechanical restoration – the seller has over $12,000 worth of receipts for the work performed, not including the rare tank. The bodywork was repainted, the engine was rebuilt with BMW OEM parts by Irv Seaver. The frame is missing the battery cover brackets, and it’s missing the the original tool kit, but this would be an interesting buy for those of you looking for a classic Beemer.
