Motocicletas BMW: libros - historia de la empresa y modelos

Established in 1916, BMW is one of the automotive and motorcycle industry's oldest and most-respected manufacturers. Over the past 100-plus years, the company has passed through myriad incarnations.

Over the decades, BMW used that configuration to power groundbreaking machines like the R90 S, R100 RS, and R80 GS. Beginning in 1983, the company added add three- and four-cylinder machines to their offerings, culminating in today's spectacular S1000 RR sport bike.

From the pre-war motorcycles to the iconic R-series twins of the 1970s and '80s to the mighty M-cars and superbikes of today, The BMW Century offers a full review of German engineering at its zenith. The book is illustrated generously with hundreds of historic, contemporary, and racing photographs - many sourced from BMW's historic archives - and thorough text covering BMW's full history.

This is the one volume no BMW aficionado will want to be without.

Es gehört viel gestalterisches Feingefühl dazu, aus zwei Zylindern eine Legende zu formen ? genau das gelang BMW, der deutschen Edelschmiede. Seit 1923 im Motorradbau tätig, entstanden vor allem in den Jahren nach 1945 Motorräder, die Geschichte schrieben.
Mit seinem vielfältigen Produktportfolio steht BMW heute mehr denn je für eine einzigartige Erfolgsstory mit Stück- und Absatzzahlen, die eigentlich nur eine Richtung kennen: steil nach oben.

Die überarbeitete und aktualisierte Neuauflage von Frank Rönicke erzählt diese Jahrhundert-Story von ihrem Anbeginn bis heute und visualisiert sie mit über 600 Abbildungen.

Noch bevor BMW als Automobilhersteller in Erscheinung trat, begann das Unternehmen im Jahr 1923 mit der Motorradproduktion. Auch zwei Weltkriege and zwischenzeitliche Turbulenzen konnten der Marke nichts anhaben.
Schon das erste Modell, die R 32, verfügte über den stilprägenden Zweizylinder-Boxer mit Kardanantrieb - ein einzigartiges Prinzip, das sich bis heute bei den Maschinen aus BMW-Produktion wiederfindet.
Mit der R nineT, die BMW zum 90-jährigen Bestehen der Motorradsparte im Jahr 2013 präsentierte, hat der Hersteller seinen Boxermotor souverän in die Jetztzeit überführt and damit einmal mehr neue Kundenkreise erschlossen.

Seit 95 Jahren baut BMW Motorräder, und nie waren sie beliebter und faszinierender als heute. Warum das so ist, zeigt dieser Prachtband von Peter Gantriis: Die Bikes sind weit mehr als Fahrmaschinen, sie sind rollende Kunstwerke, die die Ästhetik der Technik mit der Eleganz des Designs kombinieren.

Dieses aussergewöhnliche Buch zeichnet die Geschichte des bayerischen Herstellers anhand seiner erfolgreichsten Modelle nach.
Es gelingt dem Autor, mithilfe fantastischer Bilder, aufgenommen aus ungewöhnlichen Perspektiven und mit untrüglichem Gespür für Details, die Faszination "BMW" erlebbar zu machen.

Over the past 80 years, BMW motorcycles have provided a unique alternative to those of other manufacturers. Some motorcycles may have been faster, certainly others were cheaper, but with their emphasis on quality and reliability, none have emulated the practicality of a BMW.

With its commitment to ease of serviceability, the BMW motorcycle has become the preferred choice for hundreds of thousands of motorcyclists around the world. BMW motorcycles are made to be ridden, and if the journey includes a mixture of straight roads and corners, there is no better motorcycle.

Ownership of a BMW is also generally a long-term affair. Because of long model runs, the designs are so well developed there seems little need to update on the whim of fashion. This is most definitely a refreshing change from the current trend towards instant obsolescence.

This new edition of Ian Falloon's classic book on the history of BMW Motorcycles brings the story right up to date, and now includes all models from 1923 right through to 2019.
Falloon is a prolific author and one of the world's foremost motorcycle historians with years of experience.

BMW est née dans le ciel allemand au début du XXe siècle lorsque deux sociétés d'aéronautique fusionnèrent pour fonder le 7 mars 1916 ce qui deviendra l'un des plus grands groupes automobiles et motos au monde.
À deux reprises, BMW dut se confronter aux fracas des conflits mondiaux qui orientèrent malgré elle son activité. À chaque fois, la passion d'hommes pour leur marque et pour la moto sauva l'entreprise. Quand les difficultés financières survinrent à la fin des années 1960, BMW, devenue un géant de l'automobile, conserva pour la moto un attachement particulier et lui donna une nouvelle impulsion, fondée sur l'innovation technologique et la recherche de nouveaux concepts.

Au fil des pages, l'histoire de BMW se mêle à celles de ses motos pour vous guider à la découverte d'une marque unique, incontournable et résolument tournée vers l'avenir.

Presents the rolling sculptures that are BMW motorcycles in studio portraits, each bike accompanied by a short history of the machine.
All the classic bikes are here - pre-World War II BMWs like the R5 that defined performance in that era; the military R12 that carried the Wehrmacht as it blitzkrieged its way across Europe; the R75M that accompanied Rommel's Panzers in North Africa; the Earles-forked R69S that offered the perfect platform for mounting a Steib sidecar; the R90S café racer; and the GS (Gelände Sport) series that launched a dual-sport revolution.

All the bike families are covered: the side-valve machines from the early years, the early overhead-valve performance bikes, the postwar Airheads and Oilheads, the four-cylinder and six-cylinder touring bikes, the early pushrod singles, the modern overhead-cam singles, the latest parallel twins, and inline-four cylinder sport bikes.
