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.2016-12-06 04:40:54Dobbs Ferry, New York, United States4231000 -

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.

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.2016-06-20 04:57:46Miami, Florida, United States1030000 -

Suzuki launches new retro models: GSX-8T and GSX-8TT
Mon, 07 Jul 2025Suzuki gives a nod to its past with retro-inspired GSX-8T and GSX-8TT Well, we got that one wrong, didn't we? If you don't know what we're talking about, in episode 5 of the Bore and Stoke podcast, we caught wind of the Suzuki GSX-8T and TT and we all guessed the "T" would stand for "Touring." We weren't quite sure what "TT" would stand for, but nonetheless, we got this one totally wrong. Suzuki has officially unveiled the GSX-8T and GSX-8TT, and instead of being touring bikes (which, by the way, we still think is a good idea), the T and TT are two new models based on the Suzuki GSX-8 platform, now with retro themes inspired by Suzuki's past.

New 2026 Honda CRF300F Coming to America
Tue, 24 Jun 2025Air-cooled off-road model first revealed in Brazil Honda is preparing to introduce a new air-cooled CRF300F model for 2026. The off-road model was first revealed last month at Festival Interlagos in Sao Paulo, Brazil, but Motorcycle.com can confirm the CRF300F has been certified by the California Air Resources Board, indicating it will be added to American Honda’s 2026 lineup. Based on the CRF300F’s name, it would be easy to assume it to be an offshoot of the CRF300L, using the 286cc liquid-cooled Single that has powered several Honda 300s over the years.
