1983 R100 RS Cafe
Custom Rear Subframe, Custom Works performance shocks. Dellorto PHM38 carbs from an R90s. Rear sets. LED tail light and turn signals. CNC'd upper triple clamp, steel lower fork brace.  New clutch, brake lines, brake pads, throttle cables, clutch cable, fuel valves, seals, rubber, grips etc etc. I purchased the bike stock with the vision to build a clean, fun and functional cafe racer.

It is very clean I have ridden it only 685 miles since restoring it. It was finished in August 16'. The bike was completely disassembled. The frame, tank, wheels and other parts were repainted. I get compliments everywhere I ride. When I purchased the bike it was very clean the odometer read just over 7100 miles but the owner was unsure if it was correct because he purchased it from an estate sale. So the actual miles are unknown. The bike starts, runs, shifts, stops and handles great. Its an 83' so it has dual front Brembo calipers, single rear disc and electronic ignition.

The wheels are converted to tubeless and the tires are conti classic attack radial. The seat is foam covered in super nice leather. I rode about 250 miles on a Sunday a few weeks ago and it is plenty comfortable.

I took the first picture just before my first ride after restoring. The others were taken on 11/18

I have two young children and another one on the way, so no motorcycles for me for awhile!

It is very clean but not new please look at the pictures to see the condition.

please message me with any questions.

This bike is fun, plenty fast, and gets a lot of looks. I absolutely love it and will hate to see it go

EICMA 2012: BMW F800GT Announced as Replacement for F800ST

Tue, 13 Nov 2012

As we reported in August, BMW is replacing its F800ST sport tourer with a new, more touring-oriented version called the F800GT. Revealed at the 2012 EICMA Show in Milan, Italy, the 2013 BMW F800ST is equipped with a 798cc parallel Twin engine claiming 88 hp at 8000rpm, an increase from the BMW F800ST’s claim of 84 hp at 8000rpm (the 2012 F700GS and F800GS also claims 84hp from a similar engine.) Other changes include better wind protection, lighter wheels, new higher-mounted handlebars, repositioned footrests, and load capacity increased to 456 pounds from 432 pounds. Like all current BMW motorcycles, the F800GT comes standard with ABS.

2013 BMW HP4 Pricing Released

Fri, 05 Oct 2012

A few weeks ago we tested BMW’s scintillating new HP4 version of the S1000RR, and we were blown away by the incredible competency of this class-leading superbike for the street, including its new semi-active Dynamic Damping Control suspension. What we didn’t know then was how princely a sum BMW would demand in its MSRP, but now we know. Initially, BMW announced U.S.

The future. But we can't have it

It's no secret that we motorcyclists are getting older. We're ageing because less people are passing their bike test each year (roughly 30,000 last year compared to 50,000 for the 10 years before the new two-part test) and so not only is the pool not growing it's not even being replenished and so the average age isn't being diluted down by yoof. When the going gets tough in any situation, you really get to see who's got their shit-sorted and who's light enough on their feet to adapt to change.
