This original 1984 BMW R65 Miles: 8,664 Original Owner: 1 The air-cooled BMW Boxer Twin models of the last half of the 20th century (now affectionately known as “Airheads”) epitomize the concept of simple, down-to-earth, form-follows-function motorcycle design. And you couldn’t ask for a more friendly and faithful travel companion. So many of these bikes — now forty, fifty, even sixty years old and counting — are still being ridden and enjoyed today. The early 1980s was a period that many enthusiasts consider the heyday of the Airheads. Contact us today for more information! We can help with shipping all around the world.

FROM WIKIPEDIA: The R65 is fitted with a type 248/1 engine, a different version of the well known BMW type 247 , also known as an airhead . The engine is a 648 cc, OHV , two valves per cylinder , air-cooled flat-twin (i.e., horizontally-opposed cylinders) or “boxer” engine (652Vb). The R65 weighs 205 kg (455 lb) with a full tank of fuel and has a five speed gearbox connected to a shaft final drive .[ 3] From 1981 on, the R65 was fitted with breaker-less electronic ignition. This further improved the already good reliability of the bike. Following standard BMW practice of the time, two 32 mm Bing CV carburettors were used and the R65 used a single dry plate clutch. An additional lower powered version 27 hp (652Vc) was also produced for the German market and was fitted with 26 mm Bing CV carburettors. The R65 features a smaller fuel tank than other larger BMW airheads, with a 22 litres (4.8 imp gal; 5.8 US gal) capacity which includes a 0.5 gallon reserve. The monolever version of the bike was produced from 1985 until 1993.
