1972 BMW 496cc R50/5 Frame no. 2905192 Engine no. 2905192 Please kindly note that this motorbike will be available for viewing by prior appointment in Dortmund: please contact eva.lengler@bonhams.com for booking. The long-awaited replacements for BMW's long-running Earles-forked flat twins finally arrived in 1969. As well as a telescopic, leading-axle front fork, the newcomers featured a lightweight, welded, duplex frame, innovations first seen on the Bavarian company's ISDT machines. The engine too had come in for revision, now employing a one-piece forged crankshaft and aluminium-alloy cylinder barrels while carrying its camshaft below the crank. Coil ignition and 12-volt electrics were other new departures for the Munich firm. The new '/5' models came in three engine capacities, the variation being achieved by different bore sizes in what were otherwise virtually identical machines. The 496cc R50/5 produced a claimed 32bhp, which was good enough for a top speed of 98mph. Currently displaying a total of 28,535 kilometres on the odometer, this R50/5 comes with an original instruction manual and a German Fahrzeugbrief (registration document). Footnotes: Please kindly note that VAT at the prevailing german rate (currently 19%) will be added to the buyer's premium which will be invoiced on a VAT exclusive basis. If you are planning to export, please make the department aware. Saleroom notices: This lot is offered with a key. Lot to be sold without reserve.
