1971 BMW R60/5 is equipped with a 600cc flat-twin and 4-speed manual gearbox.
Bike was previously modified to café racer style with a custom exhaust system, K&N air filters, Laverda handlebars, Corbin seat pan, Oshmo rear-set foot pegs, and aftermarket lighting.Equipped with an electric starter and telescopic forks, the engine, chassis, gas tank, and frame are original to the motorcycle. A small chip and some bubbling are noted on the gas tank from a substandard previous repair.
A custom exhaust system was added by the previous owner. Some corrosion is present on the exhaust pipes, rear swing-arm hardware, Laverda cafe racer-style handle bars, and triple-clamp. The Corbin seat-pan was re-upholstered and Oshmo rear-set foot pegs were added. No gauges or instrumentation are present, and thus, true mileage is unknown.
A new side-mounted gel battery was fitted in an aftermarket battery assembly, original bing carbs with K&N air filters.
