There are lots of books about the classic BMW Boxers; their history,
performance, lineage, and the minutiae of its specification. But none of
them concentrate entirely on telling you what to look for when buying
one secondhand. That's what this book is about - it is a
straightforward, practical guide to buying a used Boxer twin. It doesn't
list all the correct colour combinations for each year or analyse the
bike's design philosophy - there are excellent books listed at the end
of this one that do all of that - but it will help you avoid buying a
dud. Point by point, it takes the reader through everything that needs
looking at when buying a Boxer, plus spares prices, which is the best
model to buy for your needs, and a look at auctions, restorations and
paperwork
The last of the 'classic' air-cooled Boxer twins, these bikes are now
collector's items, and many have been saved, restored and continue to be
ridden - this book tells the reader how to be part of the Boxer's
ongoing story.
