Quoting oneself, while including another copy of the picture is no doubt why we ran out of disk space.

We ran out of attachment space. The photos in this thread so far are not attachments, which are saved on the Boxerworks server. They are links to photos stored on someone elses servers, so are using someone elses disk space and bandwidth. So you are off the hook this time, Tim. :D

So, the post with the correct link to the R7 is gone?

That R7 was a one-off prototype 800cc, and was featured on Jay Leno's Garage:

One might think it is the prettiest BMW motorcycle ever made. No one knows if it was good or not. A data sample of one that was never used doesn't exactly qualify for being the best.

The dates on the posts is interesting. It looks like Rob started it in 2011 and it gets one or two posts a year till now. It sat for more than a year before Duane made the last post.
