What year was the last of the R65 in the USA?

What year did they switch to a monoshock rearend?

Was that the same time they switched to the longer wheelbase?

Is the R90/100S fairing easily mounted on a late model R65?

Is there somewhere on-line to see examples of BMW accessories offered for the R65?

Many thanks.

Why haven't you purchased this bike yet? Stop avoiding me, and come get this bike before we move out of the country in 8 weeks.

To answer your questions: 1987, 1985, yes, yes, not really. :)

Yes, for one year. Probably leaving around the first of November, depending upon the work visa situation.

You need to get a Guzzi. A nice V50 Monza, perhaps.
