BMW may well have plans to launch a new bike, but the rig in the photo looks very much as a Kawasaki, as someone already mentioned. Let's not worry about the bike - we can be sure the camera will work.

I think they should film it with the e39 M5

death valley

jpuff · 08-16-2010, 06:00 PM

It could be california, it could be arizona, it could be nevada. All of these states have locations indistinguishable from each other.

RäDIOCLäSH · 08-16-2010, 07:29 PM

...As Johnny Rotten sings,"I could be wrong, I could be right"
Here's good support for the photo shoot location to be tied to southern Nevada.
Look at the mountains behind the track.If nothing else,witness the most righteous M3 on the planet.I saw this thing on the surface streets in Vegas.M3 comes in at minute 4:17.

993 911 · 08-17-2010, 12:34 AM

Looks like Palm Desert

Robert · 08-18-2010, 12:19 AM

I got it. The production version of 1M will be a new BMW bike aka 1MiS

..you could be right.I forgot Scott said the shoot would be near L.A(page 2 of thread)The range of mountains that sits behind Palm Springs is quite similar.

Scott did mention he would be near LA.

Hey Scott,
How's about some raw footage from the recently filmed "1M in the Desert World Tour"....hell, why not leak the commercial here 1st?!

HERR FSTIR · 08-22-2010, 02:29 AM

Palm Desert sounds like a good guess. Scott posting on German Car Forum:

Quote:

I am on my annual break but also filming in and around Los Angeles at the moment , so My family are over here too. So when I am not filming I am either on a visit to Universal studios or shopping, or seeing the latest Hollywood blockbuster. Not really had the opportunity to sit down much as I have been posting from my Blackberry from location. Some of our shooting is restricted to the early hours of the morning so the authorities can close off streets and tunnels for us without major traffic disruptions.
And have that exhaust vibrate through an empty tunnel.

Will get back into the routine as soon as I am able to.
Filming tonight.

PrimoM3 · 08-23-2010, 12:53 PM

I'm thinking the guys at Bimmerfile have some info to drop on the 1///M this Friday... just listened to Bimmercast #28 and it hints at them having some details they can't quite share yet, but also that some incredible information is coming this Friday...
