Hey I just bought an '80 R65 for a very good price (hopefully at least  :D) . However it is not running currently so I'll be posting up some questions in the technical section.  I'll post pictures when I can!
 Edit: Here they are

Hey, Bat Man, your BatCycle looks pretty good for a non-runner. Probably something simple so start with the basics; as in a good, healthy battery.

Where exactly is your Bat Cave? Glad you joined up with the R65 herd. Welcome aboard.

It does look quite clean, and has some trimming of the handlebars and turn signals, but all clean in appearance.   I would also think, that unless the mileage is really high, that it should be something relatively simple to get her running again.

Welcome!

on this forum you will find R65/R65LS's in all sorts of conditions. From my humble eye yours looks like it has been reasonably cared for and possible stored away for a few years?. Have fun at it .D2
