BMW expands their 2009 roadster lineup with the all-new F 800 R model, a motorcycle that is styled like its bigger sibling, the BMW K 1300 R, but relies on its own dynamics and performance in order to make a great impression in the highly competitive European market.
Call it a naked bike or better off, a streetfighter, the 2009 BMW F 800 R meets all the possible requirements to become the perfect mean of transportation around town and a big boys toy out where the roads get twisted and adrenaline starts pumping.

Barely launched, the 2009 BMW K 1300 GT shows itself in the first official pictures featuring the new color schemes that are Red/Orange, Bronze/Silver and Black/Gray. Video is now also available.
A veritable touring bike, the GT features electrically-adjustable windscreen as well as heated seat and handles as standard options.
Although the engine produces 160 hp, they are harnessed by the speed limiter so the new BMW would still have a hard time dethroning the Kawasaki GTR 1400.
Stay tuned to find out more about this model as soon as new info comes up.

BMW further impresses us with the presentation of more official pictures and video of the 2009 K 1300 R. Like the "S" model, the naked retains the Duolever front suspension and single-sided rear swingarm with shaft included.
The engine is the same 1292 four-cylinder inline managing an outstanding 173 hp. This much amount of power, together with its 217 kg position the bike up against the Suzuki B-King, something that isn’t quite often to be seen.
The BMW K 1300 R will be available in three colors for 2009: Orange, Gray and White. Even thought he Bavarian manufacturer hasn’t made the price public yet, the bike will be available at BMW dealerships until the end of the year

BMW made public the first official pictures and video of the much bragged about 2009 K 1300 S, a bike that carries on the fame of the innovative K series by retaining the Duolever front suspension and single-sided swingarm with integrated shaft.
The new model is expected to make quite an impression on the industry’s scene not as much due to its 228 kg and 1292cc inline-four engine that is capable of 175 hp, but more due to the optional quickshifter and the new ESA 2 (Electronic Suspension Adjustment) system.
Overall, the design hasn’t been changed except the slightly redesigned side fairings and black finished front air scoops. For 2009, the BMW K 1300 S will be available Dark Gray painted with sportier colored graphics (white/red/gray), Metallic Gray and Orange.
The price hasn’t been made public yet, but as you’ll be seeing this video it probably won’t even matter.
