The long-awaited replacements for BMW's long-running Earles-forked flat twins finally arrived in 1969. As well as a telescopic, leading-axle front fork, the newcomers featured a lightweight, welded duplex frame, both of these innovations having been first seen on the Bavarian company's ISDT machines. The engine too had come in for revision, now employing a one-piece forged crankshaft and aluminium-alloy cylinder barrels while carrying its camshaft below the crank. Coil ignition and 12-volt electrics were other new departures for the Munich firm. The new '/ 5' models came in three capacities, the variation being achieved by different bore sizes in what were otherwise virtually identical machines. The R75/ 5 produced a claimed 50PS which was good enough to propel the 419lbs machine to a top speed of 110mph.
This project is believed to be an ex Police machine and the fairing has holes in the correct place for equipment. According to DVLA it was last on the road in 2001 but nothing is known of its history.
There is no paperwork with this machine, but there is an old tax disc. Sold with a spare engine, numbered 2990024, which is stripped. Buyers should ascertain for themselves the completeness of this lot.

This is a 1975 BMW R90/6. The R90 was relatively short lived model…..expensive at the time, and always in the shadow of its poster boy brother, the R90S. As a result, very few seem to come up for sale. This particular bike was imported from the USA in 2015, and other than the importer, has had the same owner for ...
