bmw airhead tuning: BMW Airhead Twins Phil West, 2020-02-24 No motorcycle manufacturer is more closely associated with one type of engine than BMW: the air-cooled boxer twin or 'airhead'. It was included in BMW's very first motorcycle in 1923 and virtually every machine the company made, of every type, from radical road bike to TT winner, to land speed record holder, to 1970s style icon and even to the creation of an all-new adventure bike class with the R 80 G/S, right up to the mid-1990s. Phil West celebrates the success of the BMW airhead twin motorcycles. This book, with over 290 photographs, includes a history of the company pre- and post-War; the personalities behind the development of the bikes; profiles of each of the 'R' bikes in turn, including detailed specification guides and production numbers. These wonderful machines are regularly celebrated and now BMW itself is harking back to them with an all-new series of machines. |

bmw airhead tuning: BMW R100RS Bill Stermer, 2011-12-15 When the R100RS first came on the scene in 1977, it caused a complete sensation. Sporting a revolutionary wedge-shaped fairing that offered the rider near total enclosure, it provided unparalleled riding ease and protection. When fitted with optional saddlebags it sang the song of the open road that BMW riders cherished: long distances at high speeds with comfort and convenience. The first modern street motorcycle with a frame-mounted fairing, it was not only the most stunning BMW model, but with its new 980cc flat-twin motor, also the most powerful. Soon, a vast aftermarket sprang up around it with all sorts of updates for its suspension, handling, and power, as well as a large community of loyal fans and owners which exists to this day. Stermer's timeless book is the engaging story of where that legendary motorcycle came from including an interview with designer Hans Muth, what it was like to ride, and what it meant to motorcycling, told well and with luscious full-color photographs. Stermer's insightful insider's view of this storied machine shows why it continues to live on as one of the most recognizable and groundbreaking machines of our times. |
