Description from the seller

In 1978 BMW broadened the line of boxer engines with the introduction of the R45 and R65, with the R65 initially delivering 45 hp and, from 1980, 50 hp. In appearance they were a smaller variant of the regular models; otherwise they used identical parts but with a more modern look.
In the later years of production, BMW also released the R65LS onto the market. It featured a modified front fairing and pillion seat, a matte-black exhaust system, and dual disc brakes.

This BMW R65LS has been fully restored with new paintwork, new tires, and it still has the original exhaust.

In short, a particularly beautiful specimen.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
