Starting With the R 32
The Ultimate Driving Museum is proud to present a new exhibit celebrating the 100th anniversary of BMW Motorrad, BMW Motorcycles: A Century of Innovation. The exhibit will be the sixth major exhibit and will highlight BMW’s world-leading technical innovations, racing victories, world records, and the pure passion that drives BMW’s motorcycle division to this day.
The exhibit will feature 53 of BMW’s most exciting two-wheelers and microcars built from 1923 to the present (vintage, modern, race bikes, and customs) each with a story to tell about BMW’s 100-year history as a motorcycle manufacturer. The bikes on display include a fine selection of prewar singles and boxer twins, postwar street and racing machines including the world championship-winning 1958 Fath Kneeler sidecar motorcycle, and Reg Pridmore’s AMA Superbike championship-winning R 90 S, plus a world-traveling R 80 G/S and other assorted rarities from the 100-year span of BMW Motorcycle history. The exhibit is open to the public from May 19, 2023 through January 2024.
The Ultimate Driving Museum is produced by the BMW Car Club of America Foundation, an enthusiast-powered nonprofit, working in partnership with its donors, corporate partners and the 55,000-plus members of the BMW Car Club of America. It is not a subsidiary or program of BMW AG or BMW North America, although they are strong partners. The Foundation’s shared mission is to help young drivers learn car control in real-world situations through the Tire Rack Street Survival program and celebrate the heritage of BMW Motorcars through its Museum, Archive, and Preservation programs. The BMW CCA Foundation operates the world's second-largest BMW museum and archive, on seven acres adjacent to the BMW Performance Center in Greer, South Carolina.
