The Chang Jiang History The Chang Jiang 750 is unique in all- the -world for having the longest production run of any vehicle, 68 years and still counting! From 1938 until today it has been in nearly constant production. First produced as the BMW R71 (1938-1941), then in Russia as the M72 (1942-1963), and lastly in China (1957-today) as the Chang Jiang 750 (as the models M1, M1M, and M1S). While the design has evolved slightly, especially as each country began their production run, it remains firmly 1930's/1940's technology, with some parts still interchangeable with an original BMW R71. CURRENTLY THE CHANG JIANG FRAME AND M1 ENGINE ARE THE FOUNDATION FOR THE HOTTEST CUSTOM BIKES IN THE WORLD ! BIDS FROM BUYERS WITH LESS THAN TEN (10) FEEDBACKS WILL BE IMMEDIATELY CANCELLED
