The R7


Supposedly discovered roting away in a filthy crate in Germany in 2005. The 1934 BMW R7 was an ode to the promise of the machine age and the birth of industrial design - BMW's first concept bike! After a recently completed 4 year restoration by the company, here she is in all her flowing glory. See, BMW's used to have style!

So...are you implying that modern Harleys have style, Brad?!? I guess if style is defined by width, noise, chrome, mom jeans and muffin tops...

Yeah, I know, BR - yours is killer, too - just takin' a shot at the kind of riders who crowd out the real bikes on PCH every weekend!
