Whitby, ON. BMW Motorrad Canada is pleased to announce the introduction of three new models for 2010 - the breathtaking S1000RR, the F800R and the G650GS Enduro, along with upgraded R1200RT, R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure models and three special editions.

The S1000RR is now poised to arrive in BMW Motorrad showrooms in January of 2010. The S1000RR will debut with an MSRP of $17,300, a price that includes Race ABS, Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) and Gear Shift Assist as standard equipment. The only option available on the S1000RR will be the Alarm System, priced at $265.

  • The 2007 Iron Butt Rally Day -2 Saturday, August 18, 2007
    The 2007 Iron Butt Rally Day -2 Saturday, August 18, 2007 Today was the primary day for tech inspection and rider check-in for the 13th running of the Iron Butt Rally. The parking lot of the Doubletree Hotel in Chesterfield, Missouri is filled with motorcycles that are anything but a representative cross section of the motorcycles purchased by the general public. Cruisers and sport bikes dominate the U.S. motorcycle market. But cruisers are about style and sport bikes are about speed. The Iron Butt Rally is about efficiently riding long distances. There have been some exceptional long distance rides done on cruisers and sport bikes, but they are just not the optimum type of motorcycle for this event. With the exception of Brett Donahue's extensively modified Harley-Davidson Sportster and Alan Bennett s 250 cc Kawasaki Ninja, everyone is riding a motorcycle in the "touring," "sport-touring," or "dual sport" category. Among the touring bikes, the most popular models are Honda Gold Wings and BMW K1200LTs. In the sport-touring category, the most popular models are the Yamaha FJR1300, the BMW R1200RT and R1150RT, the BMW K1200GT, and the Honda ST1300 and ST1100. The most popular Dual-Sport models are the BMW R1200GS and R1150GS, the Suzuki DL1000 and DL650 (aka the V-Strom and the Wee-Strom). Of the 97 motorcycles entered, there are 42 BMWs, 27 Hondas, 14 Yamahas, 5 Suzukis, 3 Kawasakis, 3 Harley-Davidsons, 1 Buell, 1 Triumph, and 1 Victory. The oldest is the 1972 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide ridden by Mark Collins.

  • MCN Road Test
    Motor -Cycle -News review of the F650CS. Page 1 of 4 Motorcycle News Road test of the BMW F650 -CS by - Jon Urry - and pictures by - Double Red Copyright of Motor Cycle News - www.motorcyclenews.com More to this than meets the HOME eye The F650CS's wacky styling isn't just a gimmick - it hides a host of sensible features BMW believes are just the thing to seduce a whole new breed of bikers. A select group of bikes draw crowds when you park them up. Some, like Ducati's 996 and the MV Augsta F4, attract admirers who just want to ogle their beautiful styling. Others act as people magnets simply because they're so different. The BMW F650CS definitely falls into the latter category. But what makes it so odd? It's hard to pinpoint which of its many outlandish features stands out most. Is it the nose? The colours? The huge exhaust pipe? The tank? The bike's designer, David Robb, describes the CS as "like an orchestra" That doesn't mean it blasts out a few bars of Beethoven's Fifth every time you stop - now that really would attract attention. What he's trying to say is that all the style features on the bike have been designed to work in concert with each other. He has a point. The CS may stand out from everything else around it, but from nose to tail it follows its own peculiar aesthetic principles. You have to admire BMW for not suddenly losing courage halfway through. Take the three black rubber protectors on the frame, They're there to minimise damage if the bike falls over.
