Impossible to ID the exact year, but it's a mid 1960's BMW /2 -
If I had to guess I would say 1964ish r60/2

Ummm. No. Its that "guess" part in your response. I thought I had it. A fellow BMW(2) member just bought a vintage BMW...
But it isn't the same.

Your pic is a late 70's/ early 80's probably r65. What the heck does your pic have to do with the OP's Inquiry or my response!? BMW's been building bikes since the 20's. They've used designations such as /2 /5 /6 /7 to designate model runs...
The OP's is a /2 bike. /2's were built from 1960 - 1969. There MAY be a way to ID the exact year and size by looking at the parts (Such as mirrors or fenders) but I'm not an expert.

Probably better for the OP to check out
www.airheads.org - these people know vintage airheads.
