Description
BMW R80/ 7 Cafe Racer / Tracker in Candy Apple Red. 1978
Last 2 photos were rebuild and colour scheme from 2013 when the bike was professionally restored.
I've owned the bike for 9 years but have decided to sell to make space for a super moto / enduro bike.
Registered as Heritage class so is Tax and MOT exempt.
(It passed MOT s every year without any problems. It became exempt in 2019).
39900 miles on the original clock which I replaced with a retro single speedo / milometer.
A unique bike professionally restored in 2013 by 2wheels Miklos.
This bike was pictured in Back Street Heroes Magazine in 2016.
The professional rebuild in 2013 included the following; The engine was removed from the frame, cleaned and overhauled. Complete frame professional paint job in maroon with yellow stripes.
A Boyer electronic ignition and modern voltage regulator were fitted together with pod air filters.
A new Shorai lithium battery was located in the former air box. Mufflers are slash cut chrome pipes that give the bike a retro bespoke look and sound.
The rear sub-frame has been redesigned to accommodate the tuck and roll upholstered tracker seat and the new fender.
Billet alloy rear-sets have been fitted.
Other new parts included in the build were fork tubes & springs, Ikon shocks, tyres, brake pads, controls, cables, bar end mirror and bar-end indicators. The new wheels comprise black painted rims and hubs with stainless spokes.
