Which bike is this? BMW Cafe/Bobber ~

[nzr-trk1]

Well, I found this pic on my harddrive the other day and was wondering which bike it was, I remember reading an article two days ago in a magazine about some older BMW bikes, and I think I heard the name R75 or R80 tossed around, searched them up and found two bikes with similar looking engines but I was wondering if anyone knew exactly what this was?



I'd LOVE to do a project similar to that, I absolutely love that style.

After searching the name in the image file I found a link to a bike http://www.automotto.org/entry/rodney-aguiar-s-customized-1983-bmw-r80st/
Though it's a different one.

Yeah, sure is I've got some more pics of this particular bike if anyone's interested. How hard is it to come across parts for this bike?

Aside from cases and frames, you can get all parts from the factory and after-market.
Also, there are many clubs and websites for tech support.
Models and supensions vary according to year, but in general, you should have zero problems with getting any kind of part.
