1972 BMW R-Series

Clear

1972 BMW R50/5 With Craven LuggageA Classic Beauty! Clear tile, mechanically sound, runs well. Well-maintained and well loved by us. 1972 is an especially desirable year as it was the last they were built entirely in the Berlin Factory. Includes three pieces of vintage, English made Craven luggage.We don't have keys for the luggage (never have, but they operate perfectly fine). This luggage is just beautiful in design.Also includes BMW Clymer manual, helmet, and box of spare parts. Also included is a trickle battery charger. The battery is newish and holds a charge perfectly well, but it is nice to have. OD reads 22,441. All matching serial numbers. There is a tear on seat and small very minor paint loss in places, but bike is a strong runner and is in great condition per it's age. Sadly, I have back problems, which is the the reason we are selling.
