Description

BMW R80/ 7 Cafe Racer / Tracker in Candy Apple Red.
More photos to be uploaded.
Last photo was the colour scheme from 2013 when the bike was professionally restored.

Registered as Heritage class so is Tax and MOT exempt.

(It passed MOT s every year without any problems up to it becoming exempt in 2019).

39900 miles on the original clock which I replaced with a retro single speedo / milometer.

Only 33 miles covered since the speedo change.

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.

Brand new Shorai lithium lightweight battery fitted 10th May 2020.

The bike rides great and always draws a crowd.
