• A rare and original BMW R25 single
• A UK supplied bike from new in 1952
• Only 4 owners, last one since 1966

BMW was established in the early 1900s as a manufacturer of aircraft engines and produced their first motorcycle in 1923, the R23, already sporting the flat twin boxer configuration they have now become synonymous with. Introduced in the early 1950s, the R25 BMW model was a single-cylinder 250cc with shaft-drive and plunger rear suspension

This 1952 BMW R25, part of a deceased estate and being offered at no reserve, is typical of German bikes from the era exuding quality and solid engineering. According to its original RF60 log book it was supplied new by The Bee Motorcycles in Liverpool in February 1952 and has only had 4 owners since, the last one buying the bike in 1966. Used by its enthusiast owner as part of a collection of European bikes, it has been stood for a number of years but the engine turns over on the kickstart and it seems to be complete and original apart from a missing headlamp.

*Please note, the bike comes supplied with its original RF60 Green log book and a V5, however, the registration number seems to have disappeared from the DVLA database.
