Hi All,
Here is my 1994 BMW R100GS in marakesh red which I believe it was when new.
Hagon rear shock
Round rocker covers unmarked
Majority stainless fasteners
Stainless steel rear footpeg brackets
Stainless steel Y- piece and downpipes, so no collector box
Stainless steel brake bleed nipples and hoses.
Stainless steel push rod tubes
MotoBatt battery
Original toolkit
Front crash bars
OEM panniers in unmarked condition
Frame powder coated.
Here follows the bike's history as far back as I can determine.
Long term owner used the bike reguarly putting quite a few miles on it after which he had it overhauled in 2011 at 60,000 miles.
This work was done by Steve of Scriminger Engine Developments known as the well respected SED, as follows:
Drive shaft rebuild and gearbox overhaul.
Gearbox rebuild
Propshaft rebuid
New valve guides
Both wheels rebuilt, stainless steel spokes and nipples - Devon Rim Company
After around 3000 miles, the bike was put into storage for several years until It was purchased in 2018 from the previous long term owner by Mike Overy, AKA Mikeyboy on this forum of Overland and Classics, Melton Mowbray for those who don't know of him.
He completed significant works to recommission it.
The list as supplied by Mikeyboy as follows and was well over £2000 worth of work back then, significantly more now I suspect.
Rear bevel rebuild with new seals and paralever bearings.
New swingarm bearings
Vapour blast bevel and swingarm
Gearbox removed and checked
Flywheel removal and inspection
New rear main seal and O ring
Oil pump removed, insepcted & measured
New clutch
Heads, barrels, valves, camshafts, camshaft followers cleaned & inspected.
Valve guides,spings & piston rings replaced.
Big ends checked
Timing chest removed, all timing gear checked
Powder coating timing chest, starter cover & airbox.
Engine rebuilt with new oil seals & gaskets throughout
Carbs stripped, cleaned and rebuilt, new diaphragms, O rings, float needles & throttle spindles.
Front end stripped, head races cleaned and lubed.
Forks stripped and serviced, new fork seals.
New choke cables
New spark plugs, engine oil amd filters.
Wheels polished
I purchased the bike from Mikeyboy after the above had been completed in Aug 2018.
His sales post confirms the above with photos of the build as follows:

At 600 miles post rebuild, Mike checked the bike over and serviced it.
Engine oil & filter change
Heads re-torqued
Fasteners re-torqued
Valve clearances
Carb mixture adjustment
Carb balance & idle
12 volt socket fuse
New Tyco starter relay and starter motor fitted by myself shortly after.
The bike has done less than 1000 miles since.
There followed a period of little use by myself, so Steve Sriminger, although in semi-retirement, has last week done the following & recommissioned it.
Front brake master cylinder rebuild - Magura kits readily available, unlike Brembo cylinders where rebuild kits can be difficult to get.
New fork seals & oil
New neutral light switch on the back of the gearbox as this was leaking from the central potted material, replaced with the tougher brass type, obviously new gearbox oil at the same time.
New fuel lines with the ethanol resistant hoses.
New Mahle fuel filters
Cleaned and applied dielectric grease to wiring loom connectors.
Engine tune up.
I have changed the engine oil and filter again.
Runs very well on unleaded E10, although I tend to use E5.
There are numerous places on the frame where I have applied tape, not to hide any thing but to protect paint from seat base rubbers, pannier mounts, luggage etc, the frame is completely free of corrosion or damage.
New MOT done this week, passed with no advisories.
TKC 70 tyres with only 500 miles on them.
Mileage now 64,500, may rise slightly as I use it in order keep it running well.
Most if not all MOT certificates back to 1999 which verify the mileage.
Original owners handbook
Haynes manual
Overall I would say it is in really nice condition, hopefully the photos will show this, but happy to supply more on request.
Considering what has been spent, it stands me at more than the asking price of £ 6450
Thanks for looking
