AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
BMW R60/7 from 1978 with matching numbers.
An icon of the 1970s in fully original condition.
The BMW R60/7 is a classic from BMW’s air-cooled boxer generation. It is robust, reliable, and surprisingly easy to maintain. Thanks to the horizontally mounted twin-cylinder boxer engine, everything is easily accessible, making tinkering and maintenance much simpler.
This motorcycle has been out of use since 1996. The previous owner always enjoyed riding it and kept it well maintained.
The BMW still starts with the help of starting spray. It does require some minor maintenance: cleaning the carburetors, installing a new battery, checking the brakes, etc. Additionally, the engine is equipped with a large tank and, of course, driveshaft transmission.
This BMW has matching numbers: the engine block and frame still form the original combination, making it highly valuable for collectors.
The motorcycle is still completely in its original first paint.
The De R60/7 is known as a reliable daily rider, with the reputation of a solid companion within BMW’s legendary boxer series.
There is a strong vintage BMW community with ample availability of parts, knowledge, and support, making it ideal for maintenance and hobby tinkering. Additionally, this is an ideal entry-level classic because it is more affordable than the R75, R90, or R100 but with the same build quality. Many collectors specifically seek an R60/7 because these engines are often not 'worn out'; owners were generally calm touring riders.
Including windshield, workshop manual, and extra parts.
This BMW R60/7 is equipped with Belgian paperwork.
If applicable, an invoice or proof of purchase with technical details.
The motorcycle can be viewed and picked up in Winssen (Gelderland), Holland.
We can provide transportation.
Transport possible via transport company (costs borne by the buyer).

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.
