BMWR 65 Monolever 1991 - 1992

　　The BMW R 65 was a light touring motorcycle produced by BMW in 1978 as a mid-sized motorcycle. The touring bike was manufactured for over five years, from 1978 to 1984. It was made alongside the BMW R 45, which had a smaller displacement engine.

　　BMW introduced the R 65 Monolever in 1985 as a successor to the small series, based on the success of the 800cc R 80 and R 80 RT versions. The R 65 Monolever combined the single-sided swingarm frame concept of the 800cc models and the 650cc short-stroke engine used by the old R 65 and R 65 ls models.

　　In 1991, the German motorcycle maker introduced the BMW R 65 Monolever, a mid-sized touring motorcycle in its seventh production year wearing the monolever system. It was created for riders searching for a fuel-efficient machine to handle weekend strolls and occasional highway hauls.

　　The bike’s visual department was characterized by standard features, like alloy wheels, a center stand, a monolever system on the rear, a dual exhaust system with a silencer mounted on each side, a one-piece dual seat, and a round headlight upfront.

　　As for power, the 1991 BMW R 65 had its soul brought to life by a 649cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled boxer engine that delivered 45 hp with a peak force at 7,250 rpm and 45 Nm (33 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.
