BMW R75/ 5 (1974) (64, 872 mls @ 22 Oct 2024) RJV 375 N
As you can see from the MOT history the previous owners didn't use it too much. Engine and frame numbers are matching and it comes with twin Krauser panniers, tool kit and tyre pump.
Also fitted with electronic ignition. Bike is MOT exempt. Bike is in really nice 8/ 10 condition with only a petrol stain mark on the tank.
I've just done a run to Aberystwyyth, (which is 150 miles each way), in a day with no issues. Tyres are fairly recent too - fitted fairly recently by the previous owner to me I think.
