This week a visit with Duck Koch, president of the Airheads Beemer Club here in the USA. Earlier this year the club underwent a structural change that caused some cylinders to get hot and maybe overheat— so to speak. Of course we’ll chat with Duck about that but also and maybe more importantly, we’ll discuss what clubs like the ABC mean to the lasting legacy and popularity of the 247 airhead.
