When the city’s your race track. An unfaired bike
represents the doctrine of pure motorcycling. One hundred per
cent wind in your face gives you one hundred per cent riding
feel - as naked bike fans say. Unadulterated authenticity for
the traditionalists, with a clear view of the technology for the
purists.
And urban bikes don’t just look good, they are great to ride
too. A relaxed seating position, an easy knee angle and a
handlebar offset which gives you full control - without having
to be a pro. And what is more: a few simple adjustments and
these asphalt racers can be converted into perfect travel
companions. As soon as you are home and have reset the
handlebars, they are perfect for everyday travel to work.
And then there’s the wide range of powerful engines offered by
BMW Motorrad. And lots of equipment features for one hundred per
cent customizing. Any further questions?

Maximum safety ... BMW Motorrad.
Nobody can suspend the laws of physics. But if you understand
them and know the threshold areas, you can develop solutions
which significantly enlarge the safety cushion for riding on two
wheels. For the motorcyclist, safety also means taking into
account the individual’s riding style – whether sporty or
comfortable – and serving this in optimum fashion with the
relevant settings. Optimum reserves for maximum riding fun.
BMW Motorrad continues to be a pioneer in active and passive
safety, paving the way for many principles which have become
standard today. Nonetheless, there are still areas which offer
potential for greater safety: we will continue to ensure that
motorcycling goes on at the very highest level of safety – for
unspoiled riding pleasure.
Reliability for all events. That is BMW Motorad’s idea of
technology.
