Prototype BMW R7 : the first telescopic BMW motor

BMW motorcycles are resurrected from oblivion. Why? This motor was not mass produced, even delayed to be present in an exhibition. In fact, it reflects the extent to which motorcycle BMW motorcycles ever made, arguably the best even ahead of the time.


That bike is a prototype BMW R7. The story begins from a foreign journalist who once claimed to have seen a prototype BMW R7 while walking on a mountain. With a variety of encouragement, MW Mobile Tradition (now the BMW Classic), a special division of BMW, confirmed the restoration.

Re-assembly of vehicles designed in 1937 Alfred Bouning also reveal the uniqueness of this uniqueness. One of them, the first BMW motorcycle R7 recorded using telescopic suspension. Indeed Thе Scott Motorcycle already using the device in 1908. However, the suspension was judged not function properly, much of what is on this R7.

Another uniqueness, design "shell" attached to the handlebar area and ends at the rear axle. In it saved the engine and electrical system.

No less unique, the brake lights are even added ѕtοр writing to confirm that the motor is stopped. Meanwhile, the transfer system of the force to move teeth diadposi COG car gear swapping, but with a hand clutch.

The engine was in the era of large-capacity, ie 800 cc. At that time, BMW has made R32 with 486 cc engine. With an aerodynamic body shape and length of footrests, R7 is designed for high-speed vehicles as well as elegant.



A number of the above plus other new technology makes production costs R7 swell. Definitely not least, the war and the manufacture of motor orientation was diverted, one to a vehicle of war. Therefore, BMW's motor failed to present themselves. However, after restoration work, now we can see his form as well as assess-value, seideal whether "great motor" for an Alfred Bouning and BMW at that time.

BMW 760i

Picture-2002-BMW-760i-SideE65/E66 Automatic Platform is the basis for the year 2002 until now BMW-7 series. It replaced the BMW E38 2002. E65 is the designation of nucleotide version of the little wheel cars, and E66 is the identification of the long wheel base version.

BMW-760i-Front-ViewThe arrival of this model is to announce a new styling era for BMW, the work of graphic designer chief Chris Bangle, with bold visual cues that are not prime in vista without controversy mentioned from E38 community. The E66 E65 seems to get favors after arriving in color, and seems to be the gatekeeper for styling clews future BMW models yet to come. The "Bangle-butt" rear styling has been especially controversial, and soften in the Restyling 2005.

BMW-760i-Front-Angle-ViewThe most important origination contained in the 7 is also the most controversial one : the iDrive organisation. While able to grapple a lot of functions — on-board telematics, including Global Positioning System navigation, Internet accession and the new BMW Assist scheme (for exigencies), as well as climate and stereo functions — iDrive has a steep learning curve. Basic adjustments can be made rather easily.
