The BMW Owners’ Club of South Australia
was formed on the 14th of July 1958 and currently
has approximately 80 members.
It is open to anyone who owns,
or has owned, a BMW motorcycle, motorcar, or
aeroplane engine.
The Club’s activities centre around motorcycles,
although some members also own BMW cars.
Club
members collectively own a vast range of machines
– an active historic register as well as
new models.
The Club's logo on this page, comprises 3 Sturt
Pea flowers (our State's Flora emblem) over an
artists representation combining the flat K series
motor (LHS) and the boxer-engine cylinder (RHS).

An email from Ben in WA
I'm a BMW rider
from Perth and I'm planning a 7500km trip to SA,
QLD, NT and back to WA in August (a follow-on from
the Border Run. I thought some of the SA riders
may like to join in for part of the trip when I go
through there but I cannot locate your club forum
to post the ride. I've posted it on the WA club
forum
HERE
A forum to help our members
stay in touch with each other sounds like a great
idea. I'll see if I can set one up; stay
tuned!!
Trevor Hill has sent through some information
regarding the biggest BMW Motorrad Treffen in the
world, which is held around the first weekend in
July each year in Garmish-Partenkirchen in
Germany. More info
Here
OK, so it's a bit late for this year, but we hope
to get info in time for next year.
(We were in G-P for
Christmas 2006 and it is a beautiful part of
Germany, just as you would picture a German Alpine
town to be. The whole southern part of Germany has
literally thousands of bikers coming out of the
woodwork as soon as the weather improves after
winter. There are innumerable Treffens
happening, the car drivers treat bikers with
respect and you can (sort of) legally go as fast
as you like on the Autobahns! NG)
