saying goodbye and safe travels to daughter DJWAWA today, off to continuing studies in Media Design & Sound Engineering at University. Well Done! See You soon! Jaiyo!






Nice example of the very limited Marque...a year 2000 BMW R1200C Motorcycle with only 6,000kilometres ridden

I think they were only made for about 2 years when BMW had a look into Cruisers rather than the usual high-block upright BMW design...and they spent a lot of research money on producing these fine bikes...massive torque, reliability, and perfect for cruising... I always liked these bikes but the way they were sold with mostly raised handle-bars was just silly. The design needs the lowered sports handle bars on this one...otherwise they end up looking silly like Harleys with high bars...like some kind of dysfunctional kids push bike from the 70s.
With the low bars, the Cruiser looks just right and has survived the ageing of designs really well after 16 years.
