Nova Motorcycles-1977 BMW R100s

German engineered, boxer engine, rock-solid, and all that other stuff. And while all that other stuff is good, let's be clear–it's the paint job that makes this bike soooo desirable. Hans Muth (of later Katana fame) styled this bike, and its juicy, smoke-faded Daytona Orange paint came to be know as the Creamsicle. I've seen pictures of these bikes before and thought that looks nice, I can see what the fuss is about. But today as I drove up and pulled into the Nova parking lot I was absolutely transfixed. It is delicious eye candy. You have to be there. The photos do not do it justice. I went from like to want in under 2 seconds flat. And while we're gonna do our best to show you this bike, do yourself a favor and find one to look at in person.
