BMW R69S - Motorcycle Review

[@katyishee712]

Top speed I've done on my 67 R69S was 122mph. and cruises all day at 70- 80. 80 is smoother than 70.

[@brendanmoran397]

My eyes met one of these bikes from across the internet recently......and now I am obsessed with obtaining one!

[@sgch101]

Go for it!

[@brendanmoran397]

@@sgch101 I got one! and I'm in LOVE!

[@guywolff]

JUst a clean $40.000 .00 in New England ..

[@bolti1000]

Forgive my ignorance but other R69S’s I have see have the R69 displayed on the rear mudguard - was this an option or design change?

[@edeiler5274]

This likely is a 1963 or earlier bike. I'm fairly sure the R69S was displayed starting in 1964.

[@guywolff]

I had a 1961 R69 s in the mid 1970's . To this day it is my favorite bike .... Why BMW stopped offering the Earles forks is beyond me .. You go over a big bump and the front came up instead of diving ....

[@jamesgoodwin2450]

Would have been nice to see more of the bike...close up

[@sgch101]

Yes, we've tried to rectify that in some of our more recent films, such as that about the BSA Starfire. Thanks for the feedback!

la migliore motocicletta da turismo di tutti i tempi che ha raggiunto la piena maturitá. La Brough Superior e la Vincent hanno interrotto la produzione prima di raggiungerla

[@alloomis1635]

bmw advertised '24 hours at 110 mph,' there wouldn't be many bikes in the 1960's that could deliver that. and if yer going fast for long, you want smooth too.

[@abbasalimirza3512]

I THINK ORIGINAL SILENCERS. DON'T MODIFY AT ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.BEAUTIFFUL BIKE.

[@maniyan_wanagi]

Damn that transmission noise........

[@domenik8339]

Worst I've ever heard, surprised they didn't do something to mask or change it before production started.

[@andrewafrican]

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing! Owner has a slight South African accent.

[@sgch101]

He lived in South Africa for a while.! Glad you enjoyed the film and thanks for the comments.

[@TadpolCreative]

Very cool!

[@sgch101]

Glad you like it. It's great to hear from folks so far away! We're planning to do similar little films on an early 1926 R42 and a 1954 R51/3 in the next few months...

Merci beaucoup pour vos commentaires. Quel dommage que vous n'en ayez pas eu. Avez-vous déjà conduit une BMW R69?

From a time when German engineering was excellent. Unlike today where everyone still believes that to be the case, but the product is made from chocolate fireguards
