Well, my wife finally got her license after 30 years of riding pillion! We have found an '81 R65 with 33k on it in pretty good shape. (new seals all around, wheel bearings, top end job and drive serviced) It is owned by one of my mechanics who's trading up to a K100RS he fell in love with. AND...an 84 R80 with similar story owned by the Service Mgr. who wants a K75S instead.
The R65 is posted at $3075 bike/tax/title/li. The R80 is $3200 not incl. ttl.
She is inseam challenged but both bikes allow her to be flat footed off the stand.
I'm looking for various opinions to help us make the decision. They both need paint and coosmetics but I think that's it initially.
Thanks for the forthcoming advice.
