Cool old Beamer

Scott,
The Beemer tis definitely a KEWL old iron!
How do you keep the women away while riding NAKED . . . radiator?!?!?!?
 
Looks pretty cool I like the simplicity of the bike. But I think his sidecar geometry needs a good looking at...............
 
I've been over to the Brightona motorcycle event in Brighton several times. There is a very similar machine with sidecar that comes along every year, a bit tatty and in need of restoration really. The owner is 85+ years old, and always arrives with his wife in sidecar. Watching them both get off/out is quite a spectacle. No assistance required or wanted and if offered is politely refused.
 
Just ran into the Beamer and got to meet the owners this time. Really nice couple. The bike is a 66' just like me . He bought it 35 years ago, and used it to carry off his bride when they got married 32 years ago. They are still happy, and riding.
