The most beautiful bike ?
One of the biggest motorcycle rallies held each year in the UK has just taken place.
On the BMW UK stand, was displayed what must be the world's most stunningly beautiful 1100s From it's custom red and silver paintwork, to it's trick 5 spoke polished aluminium wheels, it's huge front calipers, it's 2 into 2 exhaust, the class seat and beautiful rear set foot pegs, this bike is like no other B.M I have ever seen. This bike was the latest offering from A.C Schnitzer, the German automotive company that has done so much with sylising BMW cars. It would seem they have now turned their unique talents to BMW bikes (at a price) I have checked out the web site, www.ac-schnitzer.de but at the moment it is still dedicated to cars. There is however, an English language (bike only) brochure available. I shall start saving now ... and ... one day .. |

Too bad Schnitzer will not provide a picture. Look out for information appearing at your dealer. This really is worth seeing. PS Thanks for trying Markus. Regards Mike |

Hi Chris,
When the details are widely available we'll have a poll. If I lose I'll buy you a pint. Yours confidently. |

There is a picture in the new BMW bikes magazine Issue 2 in the UK. It's not very clear but it's on page 4.
