BMW R100 RS (Motorcycle Collector Series) (Paperback)

~ (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

When released in 1977, BMW's R100 RS caused a sensation with its unique, utilitarian wedge fairing and its 980cc flat-twin. Briefly discontinued in the mid-1980s, the R100 was brought back by popular demand and today lives on as one of the most groundbreaking motorcycles of all time. Illustrated with dozens of color photographs, this insightful story of the BMW R100 RS covers the evolution of the motorcycle through all model years through the last year of production in 1993.
