My bike
Exclusively presented as a special edition, a rare model manufactured in very limited numbers, allegedly a cancelled order of 200 bikes built for a foreign Police Force.
These 200 bikes were then prepared for public sale with several different options such as the distinctive white bodywork with a red headlight panel, blue seat and often white panniers. Many of these bikes (reported to be 50) took part in an advertising stunt in 1978 with journalists from all over Europe riding from BMW Munich headquarters to dealers in several European cities. Their travels and experiences were later related to the specialised press at the time and all were presold.
The bmw dealer in the Isle of Man, Padgett motorcycles, complained that he didn’t get one so the factory prepared and sent one over, reputedly No. 151/200 the bike stayed there until 2013 when it was registered in the UK.
2 owners from new with only 19700m in January in 2022.
Rides and handles beautifully. Not for sale.
