SUMMARY
BMW's flagship cruiser of 1998 made famous in the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies.
DESCRIPTION
- German-manufactured cruiser very much aimed at the Harley-Davidson custom market
- Despite its modern mid-cam valve actuation, oil-cooled heads, four valves per cylinder and electronic fuel injection, the 1,170cc engine bears a close family resemblance to its Bavarian ancestors
- The marketing 'coup' of being featured in the, then new, Bond film prior to its launch was brilliant planning
- This example is presented in original and unrestored condition showing 11,491 recorded miles
- In running order and complete with BMW luggage
- History file included
- Dry-stored for last few years so may require some basic safety checks before road use
- UK-registered on a current V5C
