600cc – 1966 BMW R50/2

In Germany, Standard by AbhiLeave a Comment

Here’s a ‘well-sorted rider’ example of BMW’s R50/2 – but this one’s been rebuilt to displace 600ccs.

BMW produced 2,557 examples of the R50/2 in 1966 – the second most popular year of production. The 494cc engine was good for 26 horsepower (so add a few more for this larger engine), and the bike could hit almost 90 miles per hour.
