With major motorcycle markets such as the US suffering significant declines in sales in 2009, manufacturers will be looking to the post recession era with an eagerness to push boundaries while all parts of the industry, from accessories to bike insurance, will want to appeal to new potential customers. BMW will arguably be in a fantastic position to make the most of any positive trends in the industry, especially after acknowledging the manufacturer's comparably good performance (dropping only 22 percent, when the entire market fell by 41 percent) in the US over the last year.

Anyone who wishes to buy a motorcycle can choose from several product categories.
The F series have 800cc capacity, parallel-twin engines and they use either a chain or a belt drive.
The G series have a smaller cylinder capacity ranging from 450 to 650 cc. They have a single cylinder and they feature a chain drive. The 450cc models are manufactured in Taiwan while the 650 cc engines are produced in China.
There are two models available in the R series: R1200GS, R1200T. They all have 1200 cc capacity, twin cylinders and a shaft drive.
The BMW motorcycles in the K series have four engines and a cylinder capacity of 1200-1300cc. These too are large models, and you can choose between K1200LT, K1200R, K1300GT, K1300S and K1300R.
And finally the S series includes the popular sports bikes with an inline-four engine and a 999cc capacity.
It is important to see more models and get some drive tests before purchasing any type of bike. Choose those BMW motorcycles that best correspond to your riding style, your purpose, preference and individuality. You can get consultancy and technical information in any its dealer shop, or online.
Then, the price varies according to the category, the cylinder capacity and the overall technical design. The 450 and 650 cc BMW motorcycles are the cheapest, but the lower price is also justified by the fact that these models have lower manufacturing costs.
