Comments from the seller

Registerd until 22nd November 2026 in NSW. This bike has not had a hard life. It was garaged for 11 years and has only had the occasional outing since it has been in my custodianship. I am only the third owner. Only 106128 km over 50 years. Comes with original tool kit, missing feeler gauges There are two workshop manuals. The original owner made some significant upgrades listed below. Replaced points ignition with electronic ignition. Replaced original small petrol tank with long range touring tank. Replaced original rear shock absorbers with Fournales air adjustable shock absorbers. Replaced the original Bing slide carburettors with Delorto units similar to those fitted to the R90S. Replaced the original cylinder head crash bars with more protective units. Maker unknown. All original parts go with the bike, except the points ignition. Fitted the windshield as fitted to the R90S complete with original extra instruments. Talbot Berlin R90S fairing mirrors fitted to the windshield fairing. The original Krauser panniers have been replaced with Hepco and Becker (Krauser design but improved) panniers. The pannier lock now requires a key to remove them with a significantly improved locking mechanism. I have replaced the original header pipes with Staintune, a stainless steel unit. Replaced the mufflers. These are not Staintune but an exact replica of the original units. Fitted original Metzler front and rear tyres. Barely worn. It comes with Rjays bike cover, two Shark full face helmets, Rjays wet weather set and MotoDry (Summer) jacket.
