About this model
About the Bmw R 100
The BMW R 100 is a classic series of air-cooled 980 cc flat-twin motorcycles (R 100 RS, R 100 RT, R 100 R, R 100 S, R 100 GS) produced by BMW from 1976 to 1996. The twin-cylinder boxer engine is the most iconic feature in BMW motorcycle history, producing 65 hp in standard tune. All variants share shaft drive and a low centre of gravity.
The R 100 targets enthusiasts of classic BMW engineering and riders who value authentic handling combined with high reliability. The RS variant is the iconic fully faired tourer; the R variant is a naked roadster for the enthusiast. The seat is accessible on most versions, but the 220 kg weight demands riding experience. Popular as a collector piece, daily commuter, and for longer European touring.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Check the valve clearances; the boxer requires adjustment every 10,000 km; neglected maintenance leads to tapping noise and wear.
- Inspect the driveshaft for universal-joint wear and drive-flange play; a commonly heard issue at higher mileages.
- Check the front fork for leaking seals on older examples; replacement seals are available but require fork disassembly.
- Watch for oil seepage at the valve covers and head gasket; typical points on the boxer engine that has missed servicing.
- Inspect the wiring loom for brittle cables and connector corrosion at the main plug, a vulnerability on pre-1990 machines.
