Description

The 2001 BMW R850R delivers a satisfying, composed ride with the characterful BMW air-cooled boxer engine and a planted, confidence-inspiring chassis. Its torquey low-down pull and straightforward handling make it relaxed for commuting yet engaging on country lanes, offering a connected feel that rewards smooth inputs and considered cornering.

This example is well presented with just under 27,000 miles and has been recently serviced with throttle bodies balanced, so it starts and runs predictably. Practical and comfortable for two-up riding, it blends everyday usability with classic appeal — a dependable, characterful machine ready to ride.
