An M-Sport inspired street-tracker built by Ellaspede from a vintage BMW. Featured by TheBikeShed and ThrottleRoll.

This is a ride-away custom bike. It’s not a project with a list of stuff left to do. It is a fully sorted, professionally designed, engineered and executed motorcycle.

An absolute joy to ride, with a super comfortable riding position. It can be used as a daily commuter, however the previous owner only used it on weekends, hence the low mileage since the rebuild (3,315km)

Historic Club Plates Registration + NSW roadworthy

There are a lot of R-series custom builds out there, but there’s nothing of this calibre that is reliable and truly vintage – costing just over $20k + the original purchase price.

A premium quality custom bike that can be enjoyed from day one. The amount of time and design development that has gone into this build is outstanding and it is well priced for the effort.

For buyers who want room for further performance modifications, there’s additional performance to be had from the bulletproof boxer motor. Siebenrock make an R80 kit for starters, but the customisation process is never finished.

Inspection is welcome, test rides for serious buyers only.
