BMW S1000R street fighter leaked
After the success of the S1000RR many have been looking forward to the release of BMW's street fighter to add to their growing motorcycle line up for 2014. Well here are a few spy images that were taken by oliepeil.com
There is also a short video clip of the S1000R Street Fighter. It looks menacing to say the least, especially with that gargoyle like front end.
Love the S1000RR but too afraid to use its insane power on the urban roads? Well here is your answer, it still is reminiscent of the S1000RR but perhaps slightly toned down, perfect for adrenalin junkies.

2014 BMW R1200GS Adventure
In South Africa, the adventure bike market is the largest and amongst the various adventure bikes available, the BMW GS range is the most popular. However in recent times, the likes of KTM, Yamaha, Triumph and even Suzuki are increasing their efforts in pursuit of an equal share of the Adventure pie, as I shall call it.

BMW C-Evolution scooter released
BMW have released their third scooter to add to their motorcycle range. The C-Evolution is a fully electric scooter with a claimed 100km range. Although I suspect you would have to weigh no more than a cabbage and be extremely frugal with the power if you were to reach those distances.
Nevertheless we do expect to see these scooters in and around established urban areas, and when I say established I mean first world countries because here in South Africa we are still struggling to come to terms with the sharpened stone.
Although the range capabilities of electric powered vehicles is still of a concern, as is the charging time, at least you don't have to worry about fuel increases and emissions taxes.
