BMW R-Series description
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. Could use some fine tuning but it started right up after being stored in my garage all winter. -Fresh oil & plugs -new petcocks -new battery -Tank and fenders have been cleaned of all debris and repainted 29,900 miles Overall it's in great shape considering its a 38 year old bike. Feel free to contact me with any questions or additional pictures but I would love to pass this on to another enthusiast. Clean title in hand! |

2023 BMW M 1000 R Review - First Ride
Thu, 15 Dec 2022Excessive excellence Credit: Photos by BMW Motorrad/Markus Jahn and Jörg Künstle Nothing succeeds like excess – and by concocting the 2023 M 1000 R (or “MR” as they’d like us to call it), BMW is doing its best to confirm the truth of that axiom in a two-wheeled context. How else to characterize a Naked-as-Nature straight-Four hotrod with upright handlebar and no screen, which has a 14,600 rpm redline and produces a claimed 206.5 hp at 13,750rpm, with claimed peak torque of 83.3 lb-ft at 11,000rpm, that has a homologated/proven top speed of 174 mph and weighs just 438.7 lbs with all liquids, including a full 4.4-gallon tank of fuel? Consider that just a decade ago the factory S1000RR Superbike racer which BMW’s works riders Troy Corser and Leon Haslam raced in the 2011 WSBK series produced 216 bhp at 14,900 rpm, and it’s clear that the new MR super-roadster is a statement of intent that can’t be ignored.
