So most of them time we focus on all of the cars that BMW is making(which isn’t bad), but that makes us forgot about all the motorcycles that they make. I think that we can all agree that motorcycles give us a thrilling ride that we all love. BMW has been hinting at moving their brands up in the performance ranks.
The four cylinder K1200 series has given BMW an image-bike that further cements it into the high performance race, and now the R1200S HP2 Sport will take the BMW brand back to the race track in style. Starting with the R1200S as its base, already BMW’s sportiest model, the HP2 adds new 4-valve heads sporting dual overhead cams.
Helping our local firefighters and police officers is a noble thing to do and we all know just how noble BMW can be. The Baltimore Police Department was grateful to receive 12 bikes that were donated from BMW of North America. Officers who patrol in Inner Harbor will get the lucky chance to drive them.
“Vehicles just don’t give officers the accessibility to the pedestrian traffic the Inner Harbor is known for,” Acting Police Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld III said in a statement issued this morning. “A police officer on a bike is more visible to the public as well as a strong crime deterrent.”
BMW Motorrad is constantly thinking of different ways of protecting its riders. They have introduced its new neck Brace System, which is designed to help protect the spinal cord from injury in the event of an accident. It’s usable with any helmet, and the way it works is quite simple and easy for anyone to use. The rider places the carbon fiber, Kevlar, and fiberglass brace around his or her neck and then secures it using a pair of fasteners mounted to its side.
