BMW was established in the early 1900s as a manufacturer of aircraft engines and produced their first motorcycle in 1923, the R23, already sporting the flat twin boxer configuration they have now become synonymous with. Whilst the basic engine layout is nearly 100 years old, constant improvements have kept it at the forefront of motorcycle design and together with some avant garde suspension concepts BMW Boxers are still amongst the most desirable and best selling bikes in the world today.
This 1992 BMW R80 was purchased by the late vendor in 1995 (reception file) The R80 was not used much in the current ownership due to the use of the other R80 in the sale. It was always kept up together and used in better weather and kept as Sunday best. The overall condition is very good and very original as shown in the pictures. The R80 has not been used for several years and will require some recommissioning before placing it back on the road again. It comes complete with a current V5C, purchase invoice, many MOT certificates, two sets of keys, and handbook. To be sold at no reserve.
