A bit of Hells Angels: The coolest retro-brumefers from BMW and Co.

BMW BMW puts with the R Ninet on the retro trend

• Site author Marcus Efler

More sound, less comfort: In the motorcycle world, bikes of the old school frolic. And although prices make a dizzy, they are becoming increasingly popular. Why?

Imagine BMW Build a car with older and louder engines than in current models. Renounces modern comfort extras – and offers it to a significantly higher price than the modern, stronger, economical vehicle in the program. Whether that was crowned by success?

In the case of the motorcycle division of Bayern, exactly the magnificent: The R Ninet, a unclear, after all 14.700 euros expensive machine somewhere between retro and mad-max, is the star of the season. At the dealers, the orders are piled up, and when the black chunks park somewhere, a human grape gathers around him as if to admire the latest Lamborghini.

Many bikers find OLD School Cool

Old School is cool. With bikes luggage at those time, as crockers (also) were still real means of transport, the two-wheeler industry is just a startling comeback. Although at the top of the power scale, the wet races are still racing around the highest speed, the slightest weight and the most poor plastic cladding – but increases, especially on the cozy, but trendy lifestyle rail.

Upright instead of bent

Not humbly bent behind the bowl, but upright sitting on the ninet biker the wind turbine, the air-cooled boxer engine brabbing and brump-friendly. The cornering is not straight racing, but safe and stable. And in the event that it becomes burnt, BMW actually installed an ABS.

A similar concept – with less power, but also significantly less kilos – shows the Ducati Scrambler. Also, you also have a viewpoint not only at the biker-Treff, you too in the 60s style, when you still could ratten with motor-driven vehicles to the campfire on the beach.

8000 Euro expensive Ducati

With a price of about 8000 euros, the bargain Duc seduces many (re-) beginners who used to dream of the Italian cult brand. The scramblers is the perfect alternative to the subway card in committed cities – and also to the scooter: one of 75 to 48 hp-throttled version can be moved after a short course and testing of u50s, which made their car driver’s license until March 1980.

Significantly heavier than the lean Italian is the retro-bummer Japan and America. The Honda CB 1100 ex embodies unchecked the power wheel jubilee years of the Seventies.

Harleys are always somehow vintage

And what makes the mother of all motorcycle Haubegen brands? The Harley-Davisdon Road Glide Special carried her shark-style mouth for the first time of the last millennium. A stepped step by only 17 years is not really retro – but Harleys also always look in new state somehow vintage. Pech for the AMIS that now also other manufacturers on this track track.
