R75/5 swb

[talaris]

So, after years of newish bikes I have bought a R75/5 from 1971. Will sit alongside the LC GSA in the garage. Original paint, panniers, lowish miles and in all round excellent condition. Stack of receipts and has 12 months MOT with no advisories too.

Must be an age thing (me not the new bike) but more excited about this than I can recall over a bike

Congrats on the bike. Watch out, airheads are addictive - they are all I ride now having got rid of all my more modern beemers!

Welcome to the dark side ! The best of the /5 models in my opinion. A nice companion for the LC GS !
I have a LWB R60/5 myself (toaster model).
