1937 BMW R51 SS Classic Motorcycle

Cover: This month's cover bike has seen a lot in its fifty-six years. Starting out as one of only two BMW R51 SS's that were imported into Indonesia, the bike was disassembled when World War II started and buried in the ground. After the war it was dug back up and shipped to Holland, before finally making its way to the United States. It's a great story about one of BMW's milestone models of the 1930's.
