Description
BMW R50/ 2
The year 1961
I bought this four years ago fully restored and I have only taken it out a few times to vintage rallies.
It hasn’t been on the road for about a year, yesterday I changed the oil and plugs and charged up the battery and it fired up on the second kick.
I took it out and did ten miles on it and as always it drove beautifully, the speedometer cable needs to be oiled or replaced as it seemed to stick a few times and then cleared itself.
The battery seems to be holding its charge okay, but the indicators on these bikes do like a good battery.
Electronic ignition fitted for easy starting and running.
Frame number is 631420
Engine number is 537265
Mileage 24551
It is running well and certainly restored to a great standard.

I do not need to sell this bike so no stupid offers. A classic BMW.
