Heiner Faust, Head of Sales and Marketing at BMW Motorrad:
"We have increased our deliveries by 7.4% since the start of the
year, reaching over 109,000 motorcycles and Maxi-Scooters. In October
we achieved an increase of 5.5% with 8,835 units, also a new record.

A few weeks ago BMW Motorrad presented three highly innovative
vehicles at the INTERMOT motorcycle show in Cologne with the R 1200 R,
the R 1200 RS and the S 1000 RR. A few days ago, two more new
products were the centre of attention at the EICMA in Milan: the new
S 1000 XR and F 800 R.
With the S 1000 XR BMW Motorrad is expanding its product
portfolio to include a genuine all-rounder in the Adventure Sport
segment. The fourth member of the family of high-powered sporty BMW
motorcycles with four-cylinder in-line engine unites dynamic touring
qualities, sporting performance, great comfort and superior everyday performance.
The over 600,000 visitors to the show were equally interested in
the new BMW F 800 R. The sporty roadster with liquid-cooled 2-cylinder
engine offers improved all-round qualities and a new design.
