About this model
About the Bmw R 25
The BMW R25 family is a post-war 247 cc single with shaft drive. R25, R25/2 and R25/3 versions were progressively revised between 1950 and 1956 through frame, output and suspension changes. A 1954 advert will usually be an R25/3.
This lightweight BMW suits gentle classic riding. Slash suffix, frame and engine numbers are essential for correct parts and valuation. Inspect shaft drive, gearbox, ignition and oiling, and look for sidecar or restoration traces.
