Ultra nice matching numbers BMW R26.
The R26 model has never been officially imported into the United States, making them very hard to find! These old 250cc BMW Singles have become very collectible because of their dependability and parts availability. This particular motorcycle will for sure be serving many more generations in the time to come.
As serious and correct ones are getting hard to find, get one before the price will become completely unreachable. -This 61 year old R26 has spent most of its life in tropical Suriname (South America) and was shipped to the Netherlands back in 1996. A few years ago the complete bike has been restored to high standards, where many $$$ have been spent on this process.
To give an idea; the engine has been fully rebuilt (including the complete charging/ignition system, see photo's). The wheels have new wheel bearings, spokes tires installed (where their original 'Weinmann' high-shoulder aluminum rims have been restored). The complete electrical wiring is new, as well as all the control cables.
Furthermore the paint is completely new, where the white pinstriping is painted (thus no vinyl tape! ). With the bike is a comprehensive folder that also holds all the parts-invoices (see photos), plus the tire pump and a nice double seat complete with a set of rear footrests (can be fitted at no extra charge).
The odometer reading is 11505 km / 7163 mile, only have no history with the bike to check whether this reading is correct. The instrument is original to the bike and works fine. After it was restored, the bike has been thouroughly tested, but was not been used anymore in order to keep it like it is. To make sure that it can be used without a problem, I have just renewed the engine
oil, as well as the oil of the gearbox and rear bevel-drive.
Along with this I have also fitted a new (high quality) battery. It is starting at first kick and runs ever so nice and strong. Also out on the street it handles like it did on day one, where everything works like should. Clean title.
