As a collector of Streamline Moderne industrial design objects and Italian motorcycles, John Goldman was taken by the 1939 Miller-Balsamo. It was a motorcycle he knew nothing about, but he loved the lines of the machine. He bought it, restored it, and displayed it in May 2023 at the 13th Annual The Quail Motorcycle Gathering, where it deservedly earned “Best of Show.” No tremendous surprise, as it’s simply stunning.

Pursuing perfection when restoring a motorcycle is a bit like waltzing with a porcupine. It’s a prickly proposition, and if any of the details are incorrect there will be barbs of criticism from the experts. But BMW enthusiast Philip Richter isn’t one to shy away from a dance, and he’s consulted those in the know to bring his 1937 BMW R5 as close to 100 percent perfect as possible.

This BMW R5 is refined and ready to roll thanks to help from the vintage motorcycle community.
