Review
The 1960 BMW 60 is a vintage motorcycle that delivers a classic riding experience. Its 594cc engine offers reliable performance, allowing for comfortable cruising and enjoyable rides. The four-speed gearbox provides a tactile connection to the engine, requiring riders to engage actively with the gear changes. The motorcycle's top speed of 145 km/h (90.1 mph) is suitable for leisurely touring rather than high-speed pursuits. Weighing 195 kg (429.9 pounds), the BMW 60 feels stable and planted on the road. The front suspension, featuring a long swingarm and oil pressure shock absorbers, effectively absorbs bumps and imperfections, contributing to a smooth ride. The 17-liter fuel tank provides a decent range, making it suitable for longer journeys and weekend getaways. This motorcycle appeals to riders who appreciate the simplicity and charm of classic machines. It's best suited for enthusiasts who enjoy a more mechanical and involved riding experience, valuing the heritage and craftsmanship of vintage motorcycles. The BMW 60 is perfect for scenic rides and exploring country roads, offering a nostalgic journey back in time.
