A BMW classic in a rare color for sale at San Jose BMW. This was the first full fairing motorcycle and was wind tunnel tested. The airheads are one of the only older bikes that can still do it in my opinion. Simple to work on, can be ridden all day reliably and a lot of them come with luggage and are comfortable two up. Late 70's bikes had the best squish band as well. Check it out on Craigslist.

1981 BMW R80 G/S - $9500
First year R80 G/S for sale in the Columbus Ohio area. Appears to be largely stock with good rider upgrades like the Wilbers shock and handgaurds for riding offroad. I don't think they make that rear tire anymore so might be a good idea to replace if purchased for riding. Great collector quality since it's mostly stock or ride it to Patagonia.
1962 BMW R 60/2 - $15000
One owner and Granada Red. Take my money. Classic machine that can still scoot around town or drive across the country.
