Bike has a bit over 6900 miles on it. Excellent Rubber. This is one of the original later 5 speed Iron Barrel RE Bullets--the historic bike. It includes a couple of upgrades: it has a single seat & rear fender rack (with OEM seat that goes along with it), and shorty muffler (engine breathes easier--but original muffler etc. goes along with it). Also included are the Owner's manual, an after market maintenance manual and parts manual for this bike. It's a great starter bike, or a terrific bike for tooling the back roads and canyon carving--but NOT an interstate bike. It doesn't like speeds much over 60 and chortles along nicely at 55. It WILL do 75 tops, but doesn't like it much. :oops: I'm asking $3000 for the bike with all the goodies, but will be happy with any reasonable offer. Reason for selling: I need room in the garage.

Your RE is a beautiful machine and I wish you the best luck in finding the new owner! Do you care to share what the garage space is needed for :cheer: :cheer: Maybe one of the below pics?

Best of luck,
Don

Unfortunately, neither. But I think I might have gone for the one with the radial--looks like they cadged that engine off Lindbergs' Spirit of St. Louis! What's taking the RE's place is an '89 R100RT. They're the ones with the windshield that's about as good in the rain as the old Vetter Windjammer! This picture off the 'net kinda looks like it.

Congratulations on the sale, I was certain the RE was going to a new home pretty fast ... it's a beautiful well taken care of machine! I would have been all over it if I had garage space myself! The new owner should be a very happy camper!!

Your new RT is a looker itself!!! Great handling bike that will eat up serious miles and tame the tightest curves :cheer: Good luck, looking forward to seeing the new ride in person (maybe at one of the pancake rides) as soon as I get back north.

Garage space was my problem too--none for the R100RT so one of the REs unfortunately had to go. Bringing the RT home tomorrow. ...It'll probably show up at the North Pancake (where we all mostly eat eggs) Ride with it if it's not sloppy with snow or ice out. Enjoy that Florida weather! We missed you and Kim at the Nov. B-Ride!
