Guess I see why I get bashed-I am dead wrong and I even started a thread on it-I just re-read the article and it totally was the opposite-bimmer is car and beemer is bike. Not sure what I was smoking the day I read that-maybe post-call in a delirium state would be an explanation-35 hours with no sleep will do that to ya
I don't see where Bimmer comes from.
Dunno about motorbikes.

One of the differences in between the UK and the US.
UK it's beemer, but US it's bimmer.
