R25/2 colour

Post by Bob Harper »

I know that BMW r25/2's were typically black but were there any other colours that could be factory ordered? or were there any colours used by specific countries for specific purposes? - I have also seen a ISDT r25 with a high pipe does anyone know if there were any such variations for the R25/2? Thanks very much

Hi Bob,

indded there were non-black R 25/3 ones: Produced for German police and border police (Grenzschutz) there were dark green ones with white stripes. I know one with a sidecar and original, first paint.

For medical health organizations like the red cross I know a white R 26 (not bright white, more or less ivory) with black stripes. I don't know if there are R25/3 ones in that colour as well.

Greetings, Thomas
