“Designed by BMW to combine car-like safety and comfort with the speed and manoeuvrability of a motorcycle, it is poised to become the latest ‘must have’ item.” - Evening Standard. BMW’s 21st Century take on the concept of the ideal urban motorcycle, the unique, semi-enclosed C1 was introduced in 2001. Designed to appeal to the non-enthusiast market, more interested in beating traffic congestion while remaining dry and comfortable than getting its knee down on roundabouts, the C1 is powered by a water-cooled four-stroke single and equipped with continuously variable ‘automatic’ transmission. The front suspension is of the Telelever type found on BMW’s large-capacity twin-cylinder roadsters and there are disc brakes on both wheels. Top speed is 62mph. The property of a young lady, this low-mileage example was used to commute to school for only a few months before a car was purchased on her 17th birthday. Unused for some time, it comes with BMW rear luggage box and requires re-commissioning and a new battery prior to further use.
