2012 Husqvarna TXC 310 Review
Review and photos by Ian Schmeisser #50592, May 14 2012

For those of us who think that a 650cc motorcycle is small, prepare to be enlightened. When Husqvarna invited the BMW Owners News to test one of their new 2102 models, they probably had the TE449 in mind, the bike with BMW's motor from the G450X wrapped in bright red Husqvarna plastic.


The Original BMW Scooter
It almost rolled more than half a century ago...
May 21 2012

While everyone's talking about the C 600 Sport and C 650 GT Maxi-Scooters from BMW Motorrad, spare a thought for the R 10 prototype scooter of the early 1950s, which came so close to making it into serial production before the plug was pulled on the project by the Board in favor of the BMW Isetta car.


One of the prize bikes is a 2012 BMW K1300S.
