Our friend Michael “Woolie” Woolaway has sold several motorcycles through Iconic Motorbike Auctions, including:
2021 KTM 450 SMR
1982 Ducati 750 TT1
Pikes Peak Racer – Michael Woolaway’s Ducati “Beastie”
1983 Bultaco Sherpa 199B
He also has a BMW R60 project (VIN: 618160, Engine #: 628960) that he acquired from a private party in Southern California in 2018, however he is moving and needs to find this project a new home.
“All the parts are painted and pinstriped, not powder coated.”
“I bought a nice set of carbs that where missing and sent them to the Bing factory to get them refurbished to as new.”
“I bought a new headlight glass and an air box.”
“I also bought a new NOS throttle assembly that was missing.”
“From what I can see without putting it together it is missing the brake shoes, and that is about it.”
“Of course, there will be other small things found I am sure but I can’t tell what they are without assembling the bike.”
“The original rims were polished and Buchanan’s rebuilt the wheels with new spokes.”
“The motor was rebuilt, and I was told the gearbox as well.”
Inside of the tank:
Cosmetic Blemishes:
“There is a small scratch on the frame under the motor, I don’t think it will show the motor is mounted. There is also a small nick on the headlight bucket.”
Inside of the tank:
Currently located in Venice, California, this BMW is offered on a Bill of Sale only. The sale comes with a California title from the 1970s that is torn up and likely no longer valid – the bike is no longer in CA DMV’s system. This photo has been edited to hide personal information.
