Description

1986 BMW R65 DUTCH POLICE MOTORCYCLE:

The BMW R65 was a light touring motorcycle introduced by BMW in 1978 to add a mid-size motorcycle to its product line.

In 1985 the R65’s engine was put into the same frame and suspension as the R80 which featured a single rear shock absorber (mono-shock) – this provided for a lightweight platform for both touring and urban maneuvering, which was an ideal platform for Police use.

This bike has resided in collector ownership and presents as-used by the Netherlands Politie Police force. It is one of 639 built and features original equipment consisting of, fairing mounted Police radio, Police lights and siren, original supplied Police saddlebags, Dutch license plate, and comes with Dutch Police jacket.
