1968 BMW R-Series R69S Conversion

Up for sale is my sidecar R69S BMW conversion bike. I have owned, ridden, and did some minor work on this bike for the last 7 years. I purchased the bike from a man who owned the bike for 20 years and who had the conversion done. The bike was a R69S and the previous owner added a Continental sidecar ( a copy of an Indian Stieb 200). He put an R100 motor in the bike to pull the sidecar better. Cruises easily down the freeway at 75-80 mph. He also added the disc brakes using CB750 disk and calipers. The rear end is still a /2 with drum breaks that still work well. I added the /5 headlight bucket with new wiring harness was NOS speedo that works. The tack functions but would require a drive from R75/5 or a R90/6? I believe. The mileage is unknown.The bike does need a new front tire and has a crack in the frame. I ran a bead around it as a temporary repair and have left it that way before doing a more extensive repair. I have kept an eye on it for the past 2 years / 1,000 miles or so. This is a great looking, fun bike to ride! Lots of compliments and waves from admirers. Has been used for commercials, photo shoots, and as a drive away vehicle for a friend's wedding. Tons of fun, and trouble free and excellent running. My kids and wife may cry the day it leaves. We've had a blast with it. --- Extra parts:Set of good sidecar tires. I put regular motorcycle tires on it so I could take the sidecar off and on.Tonneau cover for sidecar.Fairing for sidecar.Misc. bin of goodies.This is not a showroom bike! The bike has minor wear and tear (small scratches and dings) expected in a vintage running bike.
