1956 BMW R-50

I purchased a 1956 R-50 at
Auction on E-bay. The
restoration on this bike was
completed May 3, 2000. Navigate to the BMW R50 page to see a before picture as well as a few
pictures during the restoration.

1958 BMW R-26

This engine has the same Bore and
Stroke as the 500 above, but as you
can see is a vertical Single. I have
shown this at AMCA events, and
currently have a Senior award. Navigate to the BMW R26 page to see pictures of the restoration.

1953 R51/3

I found this "Barn Fresh" bike
only about 25 miles from home.
Its the first "Honest" barn fresh bike I have ever found. It was a very nice low mile bike which was parked in a barn for about 30 years.  Navigate to the BMW R51 page to see pictures of the restoration.

1953 Condor A590-1

This is a genuine "Swiss Army
Bike". It is similar to
Zundapp and BMW. It has a
dual range transmission
(giving it 8 speeds forward)
and high water pipes for
fording streams etc.

This is an extremely rare
example of a very early BMW.
It is a 500cc with a small
bore and very long stroke.
It pulls like a tractor, and
zips right up to about 55mph,
even though it was rated at
12 horsepower. I restored
this to Museum quality.
Although it operates
perfectly, it is too nice to
ride much. Sold it at the Mid-America Auction in 2008.
