Erm...

According to Altavista's BabelFish, the text reads;

"Roger Goldammers creation BTR 3 is extremely puristic: The Bike, with which
it won the Custom world championship 2004 consists nearly only of
frameworks, wheels, a drilled out twin Cam engine and red lacquer."

Sorry, that doesn't look anything like the diesel engine you'd expect to
find in a tractor.

Not a tractor engine.
I've seen those engines on hay bale elevators.

 

BMW's latest model?

 

I was expecting to see this one..

I like it's minimalist approach... someone put a lot of work into the
fabrication. Great looking custom.

Nasty... very NASTY!

Pfft; it should read "another rich German does something wacky".

I notice there's no photos of the thing actually moving though!

 

when did BMW make Vtwins?

 

I should have parked mine next to your sprint when you visited the house
PI weekend.
It has a thing for falling on red bikes.

 

In fact, when did they start making motorcycles? - I know they knock
out a decent tractor [1]

Their 180 degree v-twin tractor motor is one of the best I hear..

Must've been you riding near me on the Monday morning then!

Board track racer style. I reckon the power to weight ratio might be a
bit more favourable than a stocker too...

 

He lives next door!

With apologies to Sharks.

think of it like art, its only purpose is too look and sound good.

I know it ... just needs a 40 litre top box slapped on it too give some
class.
