BMW April Fool?

[Upt' North]

But it's only December, what are they drinking at Motorrad HQ.

"Hiding in plain sight on a radical custom creation unveiled in Yokohama, Japan last week was an all-new air-cooled BMW engine – supplied direct from BMW Motorrad in Germany to form the platform for this Custom Works Zon crazy special build.

But this is no R nineT derivative, it’s an all new engine – and the ‘R18’ name carried on the bike’s tailpiece, as well as the huge physical size of the crankcases and heads, suggest this could be an 1800cc boxer twin built to directly attack Harley-Davidson and Indian’s dominance of the big-capacity air-head market on their home soil."

Looks like your right foot will stay nice and toasty!

Don't worry the Rock hard Ice cold seat will compensate

Each bike comes with its own Preparation H dispenser.
By the way, it keeps both your feet hot.
Aren't them pipes off a Beemer too. .

That's a special BMW optional foot warmer included in the price.

Radical and retro at the same time. If I had more money than brains... but who am I kidding, I have little enough of either lol.

 

[bdalameda]

They could name it the HF1800 (hot foot).

 

[Bikeric]

Don't fancy riding that far! Toasted tootsies and numb bum material if ever I have seen it!

 

[Joeywhat]

At least it's not a hard tail

You'se guys are missing the boat on this Beemer.
With all the chrome is 'slices' through the air like a hot knife through butter.

I can remember being stuck in construction zones going thru Montreal where the R75/5 was like a hot knife slicing thru butter and I was the butter. They have their place, they have their time...
