Hmmm, if we gauge that those are normal size wheels, the seat height must be, oh, I dunno, what 50 inches or so...built for Michael Jordan? Or just a lot of lean over room...:D

DJ,

Where do you find these things?

I think I'd call that a BMW RE-tard. Yikes!!

A C1 & a Husky SM bike clone - tipsy, but safe?

This is what a few overzealous miscreants decided to do to a C1 and ride at Erzberg, a nightmarish off-road course where they hold the annual Erzberg Rodeo and BMW let loose the likes of Christian Pfeiffer, Jimmy Lewis, Simo Kirssi on HP2s.

The rider in the pic below is Andreas Baller who was one of our instructors at the BMW Enduro Training at Hechlingen. Nice young chap who was always 'stoked' when any discussion on off-road racing came up!
