BMW Concept Path 22 unveiled

Attaching a surfboard carrier to the side of a motorcycle is a pretty daft idea. Lopsided balance, weird handling and a susceptibility to crosswinds would be just some the pitfalls.



Nevertheless, BMW has added such an accoutrement to its Concept Path 22, which is currently on display at the Wheels and Waves Festival in Biarritz.

The result seems like it would be a real handful to ride. But ignore the (thankfully detachable) carrier, because what remains is a bike that’s worthy of attention.



Based on the R nineT, Concept Path 22 provides a foretaste of how a BMW scrambler might look. Its pared-back specification includes a high-mounted stainless steel Akrapovic exhaust, longer-travel suspension and bespoke five-spoke alloy wheels shod with knobbly tyres.



A MotoGadget instrument cluster, various unique parts from Roland Sands Design, a protective headlight grille and a leather-covered solo saddle are also fitted.



Completing the transformation are bodywork graphics by Nico Sclater (AKA Ornamental Conifer). Oh, and Californian firm Dyer Brand even designed a couple of special surfboards for that carrier.
