The BMW R 100 CS was a air-cooled, four-stroke, boxer two cylinder, 2 valves per cylinder Naked motorcycle produced by BMW between 1979 and 1984. It could reach a top speed of 121 mph (194 km/h). Max torque was 56.06 ft/lbs (76.0 Nm) @ 6000 RPM. Claimed horsepower was 70.0 HP (52.2 KW) @ 7000 RPM.

Just a few years after introducing the BMW R90/6 and BMW R90S, BMW upped the capacity of its range-topping flat-twins to 980cc for the 1977 season in the form of the '/7' series, comprising the R100/7 tourer, the cockpit-faired R100S sportster and the fully faired R100RS superbike. Within a couple of years the R100/7 'naked' had been re-titled 'R100T' and given the 65bhp engine previously fitted to the R100S, while from 1980 the latter gained the 70bhp engine that had been enjoyed by the R100RS from the start, becoming the R100CS.
