BEAUTIFUL 1981 BMW R80G/S WITH ORIGINAL HARD BAGS AND LINERS, THREE TANKS SEATS

This is a wonderful example of an unrestored 1981 BMW R80 G/S. This was BMW's first import into the U.S. of the amazing GS line. From a VIN search on Adventure Rider it was manufactured in April of 1981 and first sold in Denver Colorado. The bike is pictured with a R100GS PD tank with the single seat and rack. I have all the original blue body work and tank which are in excellent condition. I also have a white tankwith the PD colors and several original PD decals.
I purchasedthe bike after it had sat for awhile. I replaced several electric components, llwith original parts and put a new battery. I have all the parts I replaced. Iwasn't smart enough todetermine it was the ignitionswitch so I started changing parts. Expensive lesson in trial and error. I also replaced the steering head bearings and fork gaiters. I've recently changed all the fluids. The bike does not leak a drop and starts like a champwith only a little choke on coldmornings. The transmission is a littlenotchy. I understand that is a characteristic of these airheads.
This bike is a joy to ride. I have not ridden it off road except some local forest service roads. I ride it to workregularly and it can travel the interstate orthe backroads just fine. These bikes are becoming harder to fine, specially one that has not beenmonkey'd with. The previous owner put a great deal of care into the bike and I've tried to maintain that tradition using only original parts and keeping the bike as a well kept version of a modern classic. The history of the bike can beresearched on Adventure Rider under several forums. It's R80G/S #2680. The frame andserial numbers match as noted in the pictures.
The previous owner replaced the odometer. It currently reads 1,641 miles but the original odometer was reported to have approximately 32,000 miles. Of course I don't know the actual mileage but it appears to be less than 35,000 miles. The condition ofthe bike supports that estimate. I alsohave the original complete tool kit includingthe hand air pump. Please feel free to ask any questions.
