BMW motorfietsen: boeken - historie en modellen (1/4)

The Complete Book of BMW Motorcycles - Every Model Since 1923

A thorough year-by-year guide to every production machine ever built by Germany's leading motorcycle manufacturer. From the first model, the 1923 R32 that launched BMW's motorcycle dynasty, to the latest (and fastest) superbike, the S1000RR, this book captures nearly a century of motorcycling excellence in a combination of historic and contemporary photos. Technical specs are provided for each model.

This comprehensive review covers all of BMW's bike families:
- The side-valve machines from the early years
- The early overhead-valve performance bikes
- The modern Airheads and Oilheads
- The four-cylinder and six-cylinder touring bikes
- The early pushrod singles
- The modern overhead-cam singles
- The latest parallel twins, and inline-four cylinder sport bikes.

Among them, you'll find all the classic bikes - pre-World War II BMWs like the R5 that defined performance in that era; the military R12 that carried the Wehrmacht as it blitzkrieged its way across Europe; the Earles-forked R69S that offered the perfect platform for mounting a Steib sidecar; the R90S café racer; the K1 "flying brick"; and the GS (Gelände Sport) series that launched a dual-sport revolution right up to today's world-class S100RR and retro-inspired R nine T.

Like the other titles in Motorbooks' Complete Book series, this guide to BMW's motorcycle output offers the most complete reference to the subject available.

BMW Motorrad-Faszination - Test, Technik, Kaufberatung

The white and blue brand has been on a high for decades and seems to be doing everything right. This is also reflected in the sales figures.
Equipped with the aura of indestructibility, the currently most popular motorcycle brand is one of the great pacesetters in the scene. The boxers are considered "state of the art".

The number of those who have already circumnavigated the world several times is innumerable, and the S 1000 RR immediately put the Japanese in the shade in their very own segment, the construction of super sports motorcycles. And then there is the new six-cylinder - material galore for countless good stories.

BMW-Motorräder - Die Jahrhundert-Story

It takes a great deal of design sensitivity to create a legend from two cylinders - and that's exactly what BMW, the German luxury manufacturer, managed to do. In the motorcycle manufacturing business since 1923, motorcycles were created that made history, especially in the years after 1945.
With its diverse product portfolio, BMW today stands more than ever for a unique success story with unit and sales figures that really only know one direction: steeply upwards.

This revised and updated new edition by Frank Rönicke tells this century-long story from its beginning to the present day and visualizes it with over 600 illustrations.
