1975 BMW - Lot 84

1975 BMW Type: R75/5 with side N° 2993213 French registration 9 000 / 12 000 € The R75/5 is presented with the entire 5 series at the end of August 1969. This new range comprises the R50/5, the R60/5 and the top-of-the-range R75/5. These new models were equipped with an all-new engine. It wasn't until the end of 1972 that the 5 Series underwent major modifications. The swingarm was lengthened by 5 cm, both to reduce steering effort and to accommodate a larger battery for the electric starter. The flywheel has been lightened to improve revs, the rear rim has been widened, the side stand has been fitted with an automatic folding system, and the fuel tank has been enlarged to 17 liters with chrome sides. The 24-litre tank with knee grips remains available as an option (our model). We can't guarantee that it will work properly, so you may need to restart it.
