CT does not require, nor produce titles for bike older than XXXX,so retained the original owners title which will accompany the bike. Other documentation includes the original owners manual,Motogadget operation manual, installation information for the Raask rearsets,Spiegler Performance ABM Peak brake system install and maintenance guide,  BoxerCafe.com info for the batteryrelocation kit, Shorai battery install and maintenance guide, Race Tech forkand dampening rod setup and use info. Rocky-Point Cycle Mikuni carb Set-upinstructions, Euro MotoElectrics Voltage regulator install and use information. The ride and looks of this BMW is true pleasure and feelsawesome. It handles well with plenty of acceleration. Great riding on windyback roads or highway rides. One minor issue have encountered is the license plate when mounted on the tail light plate bracket was bit too low for the suspension travel and had found therear tire causing minimal damage to the bracket. The plate bracket needs to be up bit higher foradded clearance. The carbs could perform better, jetting needs minor adjustment. The folks at Motorcycle Classics Magazine and DairylandInsurance really out did themselves with this motorcycle. am forever honoredand thankful to be part of it.However this beautiful collector needs proper home with nice garage, of which do not have and storage where keep it when not in use just doesn't seem fair option for something that nice.

Photos are from the year acquired the bike and most recently me riding it this past fall when entered it in the BritJam classic motorcycle show. Hundreds snapped photos of this bike real head turner with great sound.
