BMW Motorcycles – updated and expanded
09/02/2010
When the time comes to sell your house, quit your job, and leave it all behind to pursue your dream of travelling around the world on two wheels, the bike you’ll most likely select is a BMW. In BMW Motorcycles, author Darwin Holmstrom brings the story of these legendary machines to life, describing the forces that created BMW Motorrad’s two-wheeled line.
Now in paperback and fully-updated, this new 192-page edition published by Motorbooks International chronicles the history of these famous motorcycles, known throughout the world for their engineering excellence.
Holmstrom explores how BMW motorcycles grew from a sideline to a major part of the company’s business, how World War II nearly destroyed the company, and how BMW motorcycles evolved from predominantly touring bikes to cutting-edge modern machines that seamlessly blend tradition with contemporary styling and technology.
Chapters in the book include: The Great Depression and the Third Reich; After the War; Living in the Modern World; Flying Bricks and the Revenge of the Airheads; From Monolevers to Paralevers; The Oilhead; and New Life in a New Millenium. Filled with brilliant colour photography and text that examines these bikes in more than facts and figures, this insightful book offers a fresh perspective on some of the finest motorcycles ever built and includes many of the latest models including the S 1000 RR, F 800 GS, K 1300 Series and G 450 X sport enduro.
BMW Motorcycles is a must-have for all ‘Beemerphiles’ and is available now for a recommended retail price of £16.99 (ISBN: 978-0-7603-3748-6). It can be purchased from all good bookshops or direct from the usual online retail outlets such as Amazon by clicking here.
