In this video I discuss the BMW RT's unfortunate image problem, whether it can ever be cool, and is it the really the ultimate classic tourer? I also have a suggested of how to solve the RT's turbulence issues caused by the fairing
The bike in the video is an R100RT with 55,000 miles on the clock and it's still running incredibly well. Due to the popularity of the airhead engine in the custom scene these bikes are becoming increasingly rare as originals.
