BMW "Awaken" World's First Motor Teloskopik

 BMW resurrected the forgotten of the "grave" in a storage crate. 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 his 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, BMW R7 listed as the first motor that uses a telescopic suspension. Indeed, The 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 to stop 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 speeds as well as an elegant vehicle. 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.GERMANY, KOMPAS.com -
