- Welcome to my BMW motorcycle
page. I own the 1974 R90/6 pictured above. I enjoy
working on it as much as I do riding it. This bike is exceptionally
well built and easy to maintain, two things I really appreciate
in a machine.

- My 1974
R90 is for the most part a long wheel base 1973 /5 with a
900 cc engine. It has /5 electrics, 4 speed transmission,
integrated headlight bucket/speedometer, and drum brakes front
and back. The frame is from a 1977 /7 R75. I chose this collection
of parts based on a combination of criteria that included
simplicity, functionality, durability and style. You can read
more about it on my R90/5 project page.
- I am in the process of
collecting electronic information about this classic piece
of German engineering. A great portion of this information
was gathered from the /5 YahooGroups e-mail list. This list
is just for /5 motorcycle enthusists who are interested in
getting to know their bikes better, meeting other owners,
learning about rallys and events, and passing on information
to others. There are many knowlegable subscribers that can
help you if you have questions about maintainence or problems.
If you are interested in joining see the Slash
5 e-mail list subscription instructions.
