CroBiker Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 Yeah, this beemer is considered classic, guy asking 450,000 baht for it. But that front mudguard really troubles me, not to mention color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeaceBlondie Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Just came up accross this pic, dude in Malaysia selling it. Even though I'm BMW motorcycle fan gotta admit: dam_n ugly bike!1990 BMW K-1 My ex wife is from San Antonio. If mammary serves me right, that K-1 had its North American premiere there. It may have been the first BMW with 100 hp; I'm not sure. The photo looks like the original colors. The press debut was late fall or early spring, but the road testers said the heat burned their legs all the time.Some Triumphs in the 600cc range have really ugly plastic around the headlight.

Did some research and came up with another pic of this model, apparently original color. Our Malaysian friend most likely turned into Picasso in moment of madness and criminilazed this bike into yellow/red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary A Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 This brings back fond memories. My ugliest bike was an R-6 BMW. About a 1960 model. It was really ugly with the HUGE rubber sided gas tank. It was a really great bike though. It gave me the opportunity to ride a lot of big bikes. The Harleys had to stop about every fifty miles for gas because of their pretty custom, but small gas tanks. During the gas stops, guys would ask me to trade bikes with them at least until the feeling came back to their numb hands. My next road bike was a 750 Honda Sabre. It was another shaft drive, very smooth and had MUCH more power than my old BMW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanaka Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) Bikes like these should have 300hp to over come the ugly factor. This is just to show that it does not help even with 500hp to overcome the ugly factor! And I am not sure what is worst, the bike or its owner.

Kalyan Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) The K1 looks funky but it's aerodynamically very good. As for moments of madness and bad colour schemes, can't beat my Y125 below Edited March 7, 2010 by Kalyan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
