The Bohmerland is one of the most unusual machines in the history of
motorcycles. Designed to seat three people in tandem, some versions were almost ten feet long. They were available in bright colors, yellow an red, yellow and black, or yellow and green, and cast aluminum wheels were another innovation. Approximately 1,000 machines were built between 1924 and 1939 and only a handful remain. This machine is the oldest Bohmerland known to exist.
