BMW Motorcycle Reviews

The F800S and ST are BMW's first entry into the middleweight market. Both are aimed squarely at newer riders who hanker after the kudos and quality associated with the German firm.

Only BMW would make a race replica that comes with heated grips and a shaft-drive as standard. Jon Urry took the Randy Mamola BoxerCup replica BMW around Donington Park for an all-over workout

As a road bike the Sport S is very good, with loads of low-down power, an excellent gearbox and low maintenance shaft-drive

BMW's new Rockster is heavily based on the R1150R, but comes laced with a little more attitude, a snazzier paint job and a Marty Feldman headlight cluster

BMW’s already excellent big tourer gets a new motor with more grunt and a host of comfort improving gadgets for 2010, not to mention a fruity exhaust note

The bike that defined the Adventure market gains some extra grunt for 2010 to help it deal with the rough terrain of the Gobi desert. Or a gravel drive in Epsom

For the average trail rider in the UK, a full-on enduro bike is overkill. Surely, a road bike with some big knobbly tyres for green-laning is enough? We put three grumpy old men haggard on a trio of BMWs to find out

One manufacturer; BMW, one heavyweight; K1300R and one middleweight; F800R. We settle the size issue once and for all, round one...

BMW's most radical, stripped-down bike ever. With only 30 in the country and a stratospheric price tag of £13k, the Megamoto is as exclusive as it is rampant. Get ready to spend your city bonus

The best BMW just got better. Don’t risk a test ride unless you’re prepared to part with your cash. Yup, it’s that good.

It's big, it's weird looking and it doesn't have any clothes on. Oh yes, and it's very, very fast. Are BMW about to take the naked bruiser class by storm?

Who better to sample the eagerly anticipated 2010 BMW S1000 RR than three times British Superbike champion Niall Mackenzie?

Session One

The K1200 LT is a significant improvement over the old model, mainly because of the extra stomp from the engine

Who better to sample BMW's 2009 S1000 RR, the most eagerly awaited bike of the year, than three times British Superbike Champion Niall Mackenzie?

BMW know that the market for this bike in the UK is limited.

BMW’s best-selling bike for the past three years, Tim Cummings revels in his role as supersub as the GS does what it’s supposed to do...

Not many bikes manage to change people’s perceptions of an entire factory. But BMW engineered a seismic shift in attitude with this big-inch brute, the machine that put the tonic into Teutonic. Believe

We review the R1200GS Adventure to see what it's really like to live with

BMW have launched two new streetbikes for 2009, the twin-cylinder F800 and the 150bhp K1300R. Is all that extra power, weight and expense at all justifiable?

If you’ve only really been into bikes for the past three years, your perception of BMW is probably exactly as the marketing types in Munich would like it.

Just a few years ago the very idea of serious enduro riding on something with BMW on the tank would have been preposterous. Huge trans-globe adventure busters, absolutely. Rounded commuters with off-road style, brilliant. But a serious, sharp-edged dirtbike to take the fight to KTM and the Japanese? BMW? Don’t think so.

The K1300S doesn’t need to cover as many bases as the R model to succeed in the market it’s intended for. Competition in the hypertourer league is limited to the Suzuki Hayabusa and the Kawasaki ZZR1400, both of which have a long line of evolution, sales success and loyal followers.
