Quirky look for sure.
I never knew BMW Cycles cared anything at all about racing. I like it.
Look up BMW S1000RR.Quote:

Wernher von Braun Bestand darauf. Er sagte, wenn nicht, würden die deutschen alle von den Fahrrädern fallen, weil Sie nicht wussten, wie man "normale" Fahrräder fährt !<strike>

Not drag racing anyway. Never seen a built BMW at the track, but then again can't be everywhere. Looked wicked.Quote:

Why all the laborious work and extra expenditures?
Is it because the 1500 engines were more available and reliable, then the older 800 engines?
And also did he desire, that old white cowling look to enhance his vintage rig?
I admire his dedication and final craftsmanship, but what a comment to undertake.

Besides having available parts i`m sure the dude just wanted to go faster than the 800`s would go. I don`t blame him.

its a shame to chrome out your engine and then just cover it up...somebody's gotta make a clear canopy....
Without looking it up, I would think the BMW boxer is the longest running family of motorcycle engines in history.
We all have heard of them, but in 55+ years of spinning wrenches this is the first "black box" I've seen.

Wonder how long those patterns been around....Disassembling totalled bikes of any & all kinds, it never ceases to surprise me the stuff the oem's hold on to. The new tech is always cool to see & learn from, too. The BEST part is no diagnosing, no pissy customers - just tear it down, toss it in a bin & walk away!!
