Beschreibung:

Replacements for the ‘/5’ range, the BMW ‘/6’ series arrived in October 1973. The newcomers were more sportily styled than the outgoing ‘/5s’, boasting new side-panels and silencers, and totally restyled controls and instruments. Like their predecessors, the three ‘/6’ flat twins shared an identical stroke; the 500cc model though, had been dropped in favour of the new 600cc R60/6, while at the top of the range was a new 900cc superbike: the R90S. Apart from the updated styling, the presence of a disc front brake readily distinguished the ‘/6’s, which also benefited from the new five-speed gearbox. This R60/6 had been owned by Willy Neutkens for many years before its restoration in 2000. The machine currently displays a total of 97199 kilometres on the odometer and is offered with Netherlands registration papers (1976). Die hier angebotene R60/6 war viele Jahre im Besitz von Willy Neutkens, bevor sie im Jahre 2000 restauriert wurde. Sie wird mit einem Tachostand von 97,199 km angeboten. Die Versteigerung erfolgt mit niederländischen Zulassungspapieren.
