Help, I've fallen in Love with this is Spain. What is she?

I’ve no idea what they’re like. What’s so shite about them?
 
Norton Commandos were mocked because the crank was so flexible they needed barrel shaped rollers for the mains, but BMW had them first.
The cam was up top, and suffered lubrication problems.
The front suspension also left a bit to be desired.
These shortcomings, and a few others, were well sorted on the / bikes, so as a daily rider there is simply no comparison.
As a gently used club / collector bike they are fine, but this a riders forum so expect folks to judge them as a rider, not as a collector.
