So this is the story on this bike. It is currently sitting in a shipping container ready to be shipped to Belize where I moved last August. It has been sitting like this since last Feb 2015 when I was supposed to get it shipped. I went back in the country last Friday to get this stuff shipped out, nd I had a change of heart. Belize is not the place to have a really really nice cycle and expect to keep it that way. I think it would be best for me to sell the bike with the parts and the 08 Aluminum Triton Trailer that it sits on. I want to sell these as a package to make more room in the container for other items and to pay off some property taxes up here. I believe that this bike would better kept and maintained in the states.I have a recently fully restored from the ground up in 2013. Its a 72 BMW 75/5 cafe racer. It has the matching restored 74 Velorex Sidecar with BMW Tags both have new seating and custom matching paint job. I have the parts to convert the bike to a /2 front end for permanent sidecar conversion. The /2 fork ans shocks alone will cost you almost $2000 if you can get your hands on a willing seller. I have lots of extra parts like the windshield, nd the correct handlebars to convert to a sidecar rider. I also have a 75lb balister that came with the sidecar but was removed during the restoration by the builder. And more parts that I cant remember. I have a long swing for the rear to make the rear wheel stick out more past the seat. The seat is made for 1 up riding for you and someone else or looks great as a single rider. There is a storage space under the seat and I have some new tools under there. The side car is ready to go, ut does not ride good with the short cafe racer handle bars that I have on there now. I have the correct expensive handlebar to make it work properly with the sidecar. The trailer is about 18 ft long and isaluminumand weighs about 500lbs. I don't have time to sell off everything in parts but at this price you are still getting a great deal and have lots of options. The bike is in a container in UpperMarlboroMd at a friends property. I will probably come back in the country to complete this deal?
