Review
The 1986 BMW R 80 RT is a touring motorcycle featuring a 797cc air-cooled boxer twin engine. While specific horsepower figures aren't available, the engine is known for its smooth and tractable power delivery, making it suitable for long-distance riding. It's paired with a 5-speed gearbox for smooth shifting. Its top speed is around 163 km/h (101 mph). Ergonomically, the R 80 RT is designed for comfort, with an adjustable seat height (lowest setting at 808mm) to accommodate a range of riders. The large 22-liter fuel tank ensures extended riding between fuel stops, a crucial feature for touring. The fairing provides good wind protection, further enhancing comfort on long journeys. However, it comes with a single front disc brake. This bike appeals to riders seeking a comfortable and reliable touring experience. It's a good option for those who appreciate the simplicity and durability of an air-cooled engine and prioritize comfort over outright performance. The adjustable seat height makes it more accessible to a wider range of riders.
