This 1938 BMW R71 Tribute (1968 Chang Jiang CJ750, titled as a 1968
Jian) captures the style and attitude of one of the most iconic
pre-war motorcycles ever produced. Restored in 2008, it features a
750cc twin-piston flathead engine with dual carburetors and a
4-speed transmission with reverse gear, giving it the mechanical
character riders love in a vintage motorcycle. The open driveshaft
and dual exhaust add to its period-correct feel. Finished in black
with red pinstriping, the bike sits on chrome wire-spoke wheels
with BMW motorcycle badging, just as it would have in the era. The
double tubular steel cradle frame and telescopic fork stay true to
the original R71 design, helping this tribute look right at home
among classic motorcycles. The matching sidecar features black
leather seating, a full spare tire, a chrome luggage rack, and a
rear storage compartment, adding real touring capability. With the
electric starter and comfortable riding position, this tribute
blends old-world charm with easy usability. VIN: 685439
