1956 BMW R-Series

Description

Listing for a friend, this rare and restored 1956 BMW R26. This came from a private collection of vintage BMW motorcycles. This is a triple numbers matching bike, which means the engine number, frame number, and vin plate all match, see photos. The previous owner did a full restoration on it some time ago, and although no longer perfect, it still looks beautiful in my eyes, but see the detailed 69 photos below for yourself. It is being listed as a non-running project as the previous owner was in the middle of converting it into a 12 volt system and never got to finish it. The tire pump and hard to find luggage box key is there, see photos. There is a clear matching title for it. There are some nicks, pits, scratches, and blemishes, see all detailed 69 photos below. There are
69 extra pictures below this description, so we will let them do the talking, but please ask all questions before bidding.
