Hi guys, Up for auction is my beautiful XXXX rXX/X XXXcc boxer, the last motorcycle in my collection. It has had complete & comprehensive nut & bolt restoration by Mike Kron between XXXX & XXXX. Mike Kron is renowned and respected BMW marque specialist in Germany and has carried out restorations for the BMW museum.Mike also builds BMW Rennsport and Munch Mammut replicas amongst his work. This is of course, matching engine & frame numbers machine. It comes with Certificate of authenticity from the BMW factory??�s historic archive. It was built XX??�XX??�XXXX, despatched, and arrived in France XX-XX-XXXX and was delivered with dual seat. Mike carried out XXX test kilometers on completion of the restoration and the bike has only covered XX kilometers since, the last miles just last week to insure everything was perfectly in order. All kilometers in dry conditions. Mike always carries out test miles to ensure everything is working as it should. This motorcycle has of course been stored in heated dehumidified workshop. Engine has been turned over every couple of months and fluids changed once year. Fogging oil was also used in the barrels, gearbox, final drive and shaft drive as corrosion inhibiter. This rXX/X has had two owners from new including myself, the bike comes with the Irish registration document. purchased the bike from Martin Kornhas in Germany in XXXX and Mike restored it over the subsequent two years. It had spent it??�s life in France since first delivery and so suffered very little corrosion. Receipt from Martin Kornhas comes with the bike. The rXX/X was also assessed by Mike before purchase. The fact this was French bike is indeed evident in the overall appearance of the machine and shows, in particular in the exceptional condition of the crankcases and gearbox cases showing no marks, scratches or dings whatsoever.
