BMW Other description

1973 BMW R75/5 Classic, This Classic BMW started getting attention when it first arrived a few weeks ago. It came from an estate of a long time Bob???s customer and had been his for over a dozen years. As he was not a local customer Bob???s did not do most of the regular service on this machine but did provide assorted parts and guidance over the years. Cosmetically, we???ve chosen to leave most of it as it arrived since it???s a good looking, mostly original machine. Mechanically we???ve done all we thought necessary to make it safe, roadworthy, comfortable and fun as our mantra goes.There are a lot of /5 fans at Bob???s among our collective staff, Bob owns several himself and still rides his original 1972 R75/5 that just rolled over to 160,000 miles recently. They are great everyday rides that keep increasing in desirability and value plus they combine the classic great looks of vintage BMW with some more modern advantages like a 12 volt electrical system and electric AND kick start options. They are also easy to work on, have readily available parts supplies (at least at Bob???s) and can be ridden anywhere for any reason and are as dependable a machine as BMW has ever built and offered.

Naked BMW S1000RR Spotted Testing in Italy – Video

Wed, 29 May 2013

Italian site Motociclismo.it has published a video of what appears to be a naked version of the BMW S1000RR being tested on public roads in Rovereto, Italy. The test model was dressed in camouflage and appears to be close to being ready for production, especially compared to the earlier prototype spotted testing last summer. We expect BMW will officially unveil this S1000RR-based streetfighter at either the Intermot show in Cologne, Germany, or the EICMA show in Milan, Italy, later this fall.

Tested: Metzeler Sportec M5 Interact

Mon, 15 Mar 2010

With its clever Interact technology Metzeler has created a tyre that has a varying carcass construction to alter how the rubber performs. Without going too deeply the M5 consists of five bands of belting that vary in stiffness. At the outer edges of the tyre the carcass is quite flexible, allowing the rubber to move around and generate more heat and therefore grip, while nearer the tyre’s centre the carcass is stiffer, reducing the rubber’s movement and decreasing its wear.
