No Reserve: 1977 BMW R100/7

The 1977 BMW R100/7, manufactured in that very year, stands out as a classic among motorcycles. This vintage model showcases the timeless design and engineering of BMW's /7 series, known for its sporty yet stable handling on diverse terrains. Produced during the tail-end of an era where air-cooled boxer engines were still king, this bike possesses such an engine, a 980cc OHV flat-twin unit that delivers smooth, dependable power. The fuel-injection system was innovative for its time, contributing to enhanced performance and efficiency. This classic motorbike also features a five-speed transmission and a sturdy paralever rear swingarm, making it not just a throwback in design but also modern in functionality. The bike's distinctive appeal lies in its traditional BMW styling cues—teardrop fuel tank, chrome-plated engine casings, and iconic twin headlights—that harken back to the golden age of Bavarian motorcycle manufacturing. Found in Hillsboro, Oregon, this R100/7 is an opportunity for enthusiasts to own a piece of BMW's rich motorcycling history without reservation.
