3. BMW Slash 5
Known as the “Slash 5” series of motorcycles, the BMW R50/5, R60/5 and R75/5 are considered by many experts to be the most reliable bikes ever built. Made for only three years between 1970 and 1973, the Slash 5s, as they came to be known, were eventually replaced by the 6 series of motorcycles. However, the Slash 5s were extremely advanced for their time with electric starters and telescopic forks. The R75/5 is considered the very best of the Slash 5s, as well as the fastest of the series as it could hit a top speed of 110 miles per hour. The Slash 5s also have a cool look and have proven themselves to be an ideal street bike. Today they are a popular vintage motorcycle of the 1970s.
