R90S, 1976, 100% Feinwerktechnikover form. The bike offered the first handlebar-mounted bikini fairing and the pilot was able to hold a high speed (+200kph) for longer than could any Japanese four-cylinder pilot of the day. The ergonomics as a whole could not be matched and the suspension was predictable and very versatile. The low centre of gravity inherent in the 'Boxer' and the twin Brembo front discs were class-leading. The smoky finish in silver/black or Daytona orange was just too cool and the overall build quality was, at the time, only comparable to that of Rolls Royce. Ultimately unique, the quintessential 'Boxer' continues to set the mark in sports touring. Both machines on offer are of exceptional quality. The orange Daytona machine was rebuilt completely by Ian Falloon with Nos parts for the major Bmw concours in Australia which it won in 1998. Falloon is a world authority on the marque and this bike features extensively in and is on the front cover of his book on the R90S. The other machine has also recently been recommissioned to concourse specifications. Both machines require running in. The only thing not factory original about these machines is the air in their tyres.
