    My very clean 1978 BMW R80/7 w/ 42,200k miles, all completely stock except for hand grips, carbon brake lines. European handlebars, luggage tailpiece and hard side bags in good shape.  Very dependable, smooth, easy starting.  Tank has scrape on left side from a tipover in my garage when it hit another bike's handlebar.  Not a show bike, but original paint and nice looking. Some bolts oxidizing,  but otherwise quite nice.  Some wear on the seat sides but otherwise intact (see pict) Relatively new front tire and battery (changed in last 6 months).  All lights, guages and switches working, rides nicely, tuned well, vibration-free, and sounds great.    Have owned bike 4 years, mostly use as weekend getaway bike.  Need to thin the herd a little.

    I am selling my 1978 BMW R80/7 motorcycle because I don't have time to ride as much as I want to I bought this bike approximately two and a half years ago from its original owner and brought it back to life. There were never any major issues with it, he had just run out of time to use it. Since purchasing it I have cleaned it up quite well and it starts right up and runs great.

    You are bidding on a nice and very original numbers matching 1978 BMW R 80/7 motorcycle  This motorcycle was pickled (all fluids drained) and stored in a garage in North Florida for over 12 years.  Originally purchased in Germany by owner who was in the military so it has the kilometer speedometer instead of reading miles.  Shows only 16,400 kilometers or 10,160 miles, and the condition and how it runs tells the story.  It is all original except for the battery, tires and front brake hose which I replaced.  It was missing and I added one of the side gas tank BMW emblems which does not have the clear factory coating.  It is very nice with a few scratches and a small crack in the plastic fairing as has been pictured. The inside of the gas tank is in like new condition with its original red coating.  Everything works as it should, the tires are over 10 years old and believed to date back to 2005 but have very little wear.  It could use new mufflers and front shocks are a little stiff.  Needs a good cleaning and detailing.  The bike was first titled in the USA in April 2013 under my name and I am the second owner.  I have owned it for about 3 years and only rode it about 230 kilometers since August 2013.  Very original and nice motorcycle for the serious collector looking for originality and low miles.  Original factory paint and pinstriping.  Missing the tool box and tool kit.  It comes with its original German issue owners manual which is somewhat weathered from humidity but pages are readable.  Any questions please contact George at (305) 562-0526.  Please ask questions prior to bidding or if you want to schedule to look at it.  May consider a buy it now if prior to reaching the reserve price.

    1978 BMW R100RS European Model. You are looking at a very desirable Classic BMW in absolutely outstanding condition.  The odometer is in Kilometers as this motorcycle was brought directly from Europe by a serviceman (not the US model but the Euro model) so it doesn't get more European than this. The mileage is approximately 41,725 Miles as the odometer reads 67,150 km.

    1978 BMW R100S with close to 35k milesthis a great bike that would make a nice addition for any collector, or a great daily driver or sport touring motorcycle.I just recently took it on a 600 mile trio through several state parks in southern Utah and he handled like a champ. plenty of power. I have had several other BMW airheads and this one is by far the smoothest and fastest. the speedometer stopped working when i purchased it and the previous owner said it was close to 32k miles I have replaced the original speedometer from one off a R100rt and everything works except the back light. it might just need a bulb.there are a few minor scratches on the lower right hand side of the motorcycle tank and some light cracks on the top of the fairing from being over tightened by the previous owner.the bike has custom mufflers that have been tuned beautifully and have a nice mean sound without being too loud, and they don't backfire!brand new AGM style battery that has tons of cca  for turning the 1000cc engine overcomes with factory tire pump that is located under the seatboth hard bags and bracketsthe original seat has been upholstered in a nice black fabric and has 2 hidden storage compartments.tires are goodbrakes are goodoil was just changedand only has a small leak about the size of a penny on the ground if left sitting for a while.

2025 Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello Range

Fri, 08 Nov 2024

Euro5+ compliance, radar tech and new special edition model The V100 Mandello was a groundbreaking model when Moto Guzzi introduced it in the 2022 model year. With a new liquid-cooled 1,042cc “compact block” 90° V-Twin engine, six-axis IMU, and industry-first active aerodynamics, the V100 immediately brought a jolt of modernity to a brand that was deeply steeped in its century-old history.
