1962 BMW R60/2: Preservation of original paint motorcycle; powertrain, suspension, wheels,
and brakes were disassembled, cleaned, evaluated, & reassembled with new bearings, seals, &
gaskets. The cylinders & pistons are first overbore. The wiring harness is new but all the
original lighting was retained. The front engine and half-moon covers were polished by
the previous owner. The seat cover is new, as are the Albert mirrors, parcel carrier, R/L Hella
bar-end signals, tires, & exhaust system. The speedometer/odometer are original and the latter
shows 49,657 miles. I rebuilt the original Everbest petcock which began to leak after several
years of excellent service just before this photo was taken; hence the temporary Karcorma item. The rebuilt carburetors date from the late 1960s and most pleasing is the sign of the German pin
striper on the left underside of the fuel tank, just about parallel to the remarkably intact roundel.
