OK, this is the only motorcycle in my collection. I found it at a local antique toy shop. Nothing spectacular, but I really like the real bike.

Very cool. I'm diggin' the bar-end mirrors.

Thanks. Those mirrors moved around so much while taking pictures. Kind of a pain in the ass.

Surprised, no love for the classic BMW bike. Oh well. Certain things here definately rule the airways. I still like to share what I have.

Nice find preisman!

Do you know who makes it?? It's beautifully done and nearly there - but crying out for some cables/wiring IMHO!!

Tootsie Toys, made in the early 90s, I think. I have an Indian Chief, but it is really busted. I'd like to get another one in nice condition to go with the BMW.
If I even knew how to add wires I would. Not really sure though.

No, if you want my real opinion it's a fine model not pretending to be a museum replica, and should not be messed with..... there's nothing wrong with remembering it's not a real motorbike!!
