1972 BMW – Who needs chains?

You don’t. Drive chains mean trouble. They need constant maintenance and adjustment, and what’s a whole lot worse, they can break. Which is why all BMW’s have shaft-drive. It’s the most efficient and reliable way there is to deliver power to the rear wheel. Chains are simply not good enough for a BMW. Our shaft is one-piece drop-forged steel, and there’s nothing stronger. It turns in a completely sealed oil bath, silent, dependable and clean. No fuss, no bother, and no breaks…

1971 BMW Vintage Motorcycle Ad “Cool it” – Horizontally-opposed cyclinders

1971 BMW Vintage Motorcycle Horizontal Cylinders COOL IT Ad available at www.DadsVintageAds.com

Off in the distance you can see it coming. Distinctive. Different. And very, very fast. The coolest layout running. BMW. With the best balance anywhere. AT low speeds or high. Those horizontally-opposed cylinders hum along practically vibration-free. There’s less friction. So the engine lasts longer. Hardly ever needs attention. The new BMW is a super-cool bike. Because the heads really get the breeze. Air circulates freely and around the exposed fins. Can you corner? Don’t sweat it. Supercycle Magazine says, “We were able to corner the machine hard and really lean it over.” The fact is, BMW is so well-balanced, it can out-corner, out-ride anything in its class. Choice of models. 500, 600, 750 cc. BMW. Pure poetry on two wheels. Beautiful. Silent. Cool.
