1955 BMW R67/3Rare & Defining Variant of Post-War Era in Spectacular Form Faithfully Refurbished by Resto Guru Todd Rasmussen – One of 700 Produced.’In 1955, BMW launched an entirely new generation of motorcycles with full swinging arm suspension. The first models to appear were the R 50 and the R 69, a 500-cc tourer and a 600-cc sports model. The 600-cc tourer retained the older running gear for the moment, with telescopic fork and plunger-type rear suspension; the latest version was the R 67/3, which was launched at the same time as a replacement for the R 67/2. There were few changes, though the R 67/3 was in fact only offered for sale by the factory as a sidecar outfit. Public authorities and other official users remained loyal to the R 67/3 in this last year of production. When the R 67/3 ceased production in 1956, after 700 additional units had left the assembly line, it marked BMW’s abandonment of the plunger rear suspension principle that had been a feature of all its motorcycles since 1938?.For more information and provenance details, please call our sales team or inquire within.Price displayed does not include taxes, title, tag, registration, and dealer processing fees.
