There should be a law against not only selling, but also riding, that bike.

That look s**t.

Rancid

Thats more dangerous to look at than the sun…

I like BMs but that is hideous 😯

It might be marketing led, but it would only be marketing gone mad if there weren't a load of vacuous bell-ends ready to buy it.

Truth is, I think they actually only make them to look "good" on a roofrack in the showroom. Mercedes do some horrible BSOs too.

Nice!

In fact almost as crap as the Porchse one:

thats a danger to other cyclists.
i'd laugh so hard i'd crash.

Are these the Mag wheels on the Porsche bike?

saw a bloke on full suss bmw on the canal last week looked like a old specialized enduro 😕

saw a bloke on full suss bmw on the canal last week

Blimey! Aqua bike?

😉

ar ar 😆

**snigger**

Round my way you usually find a BMW in the canal,dumped there after a joyride……

That things freakin hilarious. Looks like a gt zaskar in one of those carnival house of mirrors jobs!

If it's anything like the cars, there'll be no need for the shouts of "Put some ******** lights on!", they'll be riding with foggies on all the time(except for when it's actually foggy, obviously).

seem to remember the Porch bikes were built by votec who had proprietory elastomer suspension.

And didnt mercedes buy in a load of AMP Research full sussers and knock them out with Merc badges on back in the old days.

And BMW had that mad linkage fork bike (that echoed their motorbike forks)

KTM charge as much for their MTB as their motorbikes…

My neighbour has that silver BMW bike, but his had retro green Michelin tyres which made it twice as ugly 🙂 He got it the same time he was buying his 540i because his mate told him the bike looks great. He also bought a BMW 1150GS soon after (BMW fanboy). He's a right kn0b, has a drink problem and is probably the rudest person on the planet. Now drives an SL55 AMG, but still have the bike and he's still a kn0b.

early 90s aston martin bike do i remember it had a speedo in the handle bars or has my memory goe to rat shit

At least the KTM is a proper bike, as for the rest…..

i like it but prefer the enduro .
had one for 3 years but i worked for bmw for 12 years so please forgive my ignornace .

I suppose then that the moral to all of this is that motor manufacturers should stick to motor manufacturing and maybe leave the bicyles well alone….

possibly as i dont speak for the masses as i support everton,have a thing for red heads & prefer holidays in wales to spain uk land.
