Although in production for only three years, the R90S was the most significant post-war production BMW motorcycle. Its release coincided with the fiftieth anniversary of the BMW boxer motorcycle, and started a new era for the boxer twin. Prior to the R90S BMW motorcycles were idiosyncratic, expensive, and primarily luxury touring machines designed to appeal to the older rider. Although the new-generation R75/5 did much to change the staid image that existed during the 1960s, the R75/5 still couldnt compete with the new high performance Japanese Superbikes that came in the early 1970s. That all changed when Bob Lutz persuaded BMWs conservative management to sanction the development of the R90S, a sporting machine that could take on the best in the world. Ian Falloon tells the story of this important bike and how it evolved, noting all significant changes from year to year. Falloon writes with enough detail to make restoring these great bikes much easier, and also includes a chapter on how to live with an R90S, using them as reliable daily commuters, making popular upgrades, and what to look for if you are in the market for one. Because the R90S was built in relatively large numbers, it is still possible to buy one at a reasonable price. Excellent parts availability, a wealth of specialist services, and an enthusiastic owners circle ensure the R90S is not merely a show pony, but a classic motorcycle to be ridden. Restoration is relatively straightforward, and with outstanding looks and high-quality equipment, the R90S has justifiably garnered a huge following.
