Default Bmw r12 s

Wow, the first BMW I've liked the look of for many years. I don't need a bike this size so won't be rushing to buy one but I find it nice to look at. Being old, I remember the R90S it is modelled on.

The colour schemes on the old R90S were fantastic, especially the Smoke Grey. Every bike was hand air-brushed at the factory, so no two bikes were identical, even if they were nominally the same colour scheme.

I must admit I do quite like that. Like you Seeker, the first Beemer I've liked the look for quite a number of years. Perhaps it's an age thing.
