Making of BMW C1  

Posted in

"The BMW C1 is an enclosed scooter or feet forwards motorcycle, which was manufactured by Bertone for BMW. It was intended to combine the advantages of two-wheeled motorized transportation with the strengths of the automobile. The idea was to offer the convenience of a scooter or motorbike but without many of the associated dangers or hassles. BMW tried to add passive safety and car-like crash testing to the scooter. It claimed that in a head-on collision, the C1 offered a standard of accident protection comparable to a European compact car. Since going out of production, C1s have found new homes with collectors and as pit-bikes for some of the Formula One Grand Prix teams".
