BMW revitalised their image with the introduction of the R90S in 1973. The lithe looks and striking smoked paintwork were completely at odds with the conservative image that previous models had projected and the model’s performance was comparable to that of many of its rivals whilst retaining the stamina that had characterised the company's products for the previous thirty years.
Originally a 750cc machine, this BMW R100 was rebuilt a few years ago as a ‘1950s-style’ 'sitter' roadgoing, racing sidecar outfit. Any eligibility for vintage and classic competition events would need to be researched by a new owner. The specification includes a 1000cc engine, leading link forks, twin front discs and 16" wire-spoke wheels. The thoughtfully detailed rebuild included an unobtrusively weighted sidecar to provide stability, with a raised suspension, increasing its ground clearance for effective road use. The vendor describes the condition of the outfit as ‘very good’. There is no current V5C offered with this lot, a new V5C will have to be applied for in new ownership.
