1977 BMW R80

Registration Number: RMW 562S
Frame Number: 6025733
Engine Number: 6025733

Introduced in 1977, the BMW R80 arrived at a pivotal moment in BMW’s motorcycle history, reinforcing the marque’s reputation for durability, innovation, and effortless long-distance touring. As part of the iconic R-series, the R80 carried forward BMW’s boxer twin legacy, offering a smooth and balanced ride that quickly made it a huge success.

At the heart of the R80 is the 797cc air-cooled, flat-twin engine, mated to a five-speed gearbox and shaft drive, the R80 delivered not only a refined and torquey power delivery but also required minimal maintenance, a key reason why so many of these machines are still on the road today. The iconic twin-loop steel frame, classic instrumentation, and simple yet elegant styling reflect BMW’s form-follows-function design philosophy.

Offered at No Reserve to the highest bid on the day. For complete restoration, a great basis for a sympathetic original restoration or a black canvas for a unique café racer or restomod.
