Description

Selling a 1981 BMW R100RS with a full EML GT2 Sidecar kit attached.

The rig is titled as a 1998 Assembled Vehicle. For those of you that are not familiar with these sidecar setups, he EML rig is complete with the sidecar and the frame. The donor bike, n this case a 1981 R100RS, as all of the necessary components removed from the original frame and placed inside of the new EML frame. At that time, ue to the new frame being used, he unit is re-titled.

The bike appears to have been repainted at some point, nd the job is pretty nice overall. It appears that an R100RT front fairing was swapped out with the RS model so as to provide more coverage.The paint on the lower part of the front fairing is a bit rough and the sidecar has one deep scratch and a couple of smaller scratches. The left side cover also has some paint rubbed off near the top. (see pics)

The bike runs and rides great. It starts right up and pulls nicely through all of the gears. It has a Russell Day-Long seat on it that is extremely comfortable. The bike does smoke a bit when first started if it's been sitting. This bike is ready to ride anywhere.

When we received this bike it had been sitting for quite a while. We have gone through this unit top to bottom and repaired/replaced anything that was found to need it. Here's what's been done:

  • Carbs Rebuilt
  • Replaced Air Filter
  • Oil Change
  • Brake System Flushed/Bled
  • New Tires
  • 2 New Factory Petcocks
  • New Plugs
  • New Battery
  • New Fuel Line
  • New Fuel Distribution Lines
  • New Voltage Regulator
  • New Weatherstripping
In addition to what is mentioned above, he electrical system was completely gone through and anything found not to be functioning properly was repaired. Everything works as it should.

The sidecar is in very nice shape. The interior is extremely clean with no damage. The rig comes with two tops - one low and one tall - that are both in good shape. The trunk lid has about 1/4" of play in it when closed and the arm/damper that holds it open is not functioning. The interior of the trunk is very clean.

The sidecar is equipped with a hydraulic brake and the entire unit has Brembo Brakes all the way around.
