The new version of the BMW R 80 RT was presented in 1984 together with the new R 80. This motorcycle also featured the frame concept with single swing arm, alongside the other upgrades to the chassis, wheels and brakes already familiar from the R 80. The extensive innovations in the RT with the generous tourer fairing exerted an even greater impact than in the unfaired basic model. They made the new edition significantly more responsive than the previous model in the frame of the R 100 RT. Visual modifications like the new mudguard on the front wheel and the new bench set gave the R 80 RT a more dynamic impact.
