The 1926 BMW R 37 is a sporty variant based on the R 32, showcasing early performance aspirations from BMW. Powered by a 494cc engine, the R 37 was engineered for higher performance, achieving a top speed of 115 km/h. The three-speed gearbox provides straightforward gear transitions, while the leading link front suspension and expanding drum brake offer adequate handling and stopping power for its time. Its 14-liter fuel tank allows for ample range for longer journeys.
Ergonomically, the R 37 places the rider in an upright, comfortable position, ideal for covering distances on the roads of the era, but with a slightly more sporting intent.
This motorcycle would appeal to vintage motorcycle enthusiasts, collectors, and those who appreciate the historical significance of early BMW engineering and its evolution towards performance. It's a machine that invites riders to experience motorcycling in a more spirited form.
