Who here owns and operates the oldest Beemer? Until 2002 I had a 1974 R60/6. Ran fine. Weak brakes.

I have a 1957 R50. The engine is out and I'm rebuilding the entire drive train.
The oldest running BMW will be a 1923 R32. There are still quite a few of them out there and running, not as daily riders though. BMW owns serial number 1001, which is sitting in their museum. I would not be at all surprised if it still runs.
