BMW Motorcycles of Riverside "On the Road to Success"

BMW Motorrad USA offers riders fast and comfortable travel on two wheels. To tour on a motorcycle is to experience a unique sensation -- cornering, accelerating, listening to the sounds and experiencing the sense of companionship with your pillion passenger as you glide through endless miles of magnificent landscape.

Last year BMW reported a nearly 4% growth in sales in 2010, their sales were bolstered by the launch of the BMW S 1000 RR superbike. The 1000 RR earned numerous awards from the U.S. media, including the Robb Report "Best Sportbike", Cycle World "Best Superbike for 2010" and the Motorcyclist magazine "Motorcycle of the Year" Award.
