    It’s the real deal. A 1940 BMW R12 with an early 50s Steib sidecar. The photo was from 2011. Reliable bike except for the magneto, which failed twice after rebuilding by the so-called experts. It took a specialist in Germany to finally make it right.
    I bought it as a project in boxes around 2000. Sold it in 2004, as a project on boxes when I lost interested. Bought it back in 2008 as a project still in boxes! finally got it together and running in 2011. Sold it to a west coast enthusiast in 2017, where I believe it still resides. Unfortunately, Riley’s gone too (old age) but I have his nephew Murphy. Riley and Murphy in 2017:
