5Great book. Incredible photos. A Must Have  Mar 19, 2009 By T. Vervaeke
Just got this book a few weeks ago. I'm an airhead owner and not that interested in the other material. On the airhead side alone there is an incredible amount of data, photos, press photos, cutaway drawings, and race photos. Some of the information was new to me despite the fact that I own a 1993 BMW R100GS.

The authors did a great job on putting all of this data into one place. This book will have a place on my coffee table for the next year and then will become a treasured member of my BMW motorcycle book collection.

Highly recommended.

5Excellent Reference on the GS  Apr 03, 2009 By Ursa Major
I've owned 10 BMW GS's over the last 16 years, and currently own one (I actually bought a GS a few years ago from the previous reviewer, never should have sold it). I'll probably always own one; every iteration of the GS has been the perfect all-around, do-everything motorcycle of its era. They last forever, and early models are steadily increasing in value. This book isn't cheap, but the production quality is excellent, with quality paper and full color on most pages. It covers every street model of the GS, both the traditional boxer twins and the more recent 650 singles and 800 parallel twin models, as well as BMW's extensive racing history with the GS (including several Paras-Dakar wins). If you're a GS (or BMW) fan, you've got to own the book. If you're considering picking one up, this is an excellent introduction (then join the forums at [...] and allocate a month or so to reading old posts..). Highly recommended.


5Excellent book for the BMW enthusiast  Mar 23, 2011 By Romulus
Excellent book wonderful illustrations very detailed review of the BMW motorcycle hitory and genre. If you are a GS fan - which is what I am - I would have liked more on the GS but I have not found anyhting out there that comes as close or as well put together as this book.


4BMW motorcycles  Jun 05, 2010 By deeno360
Very good book. Informative, great photos of many different bikes, covers a large span of BMW motorcycles.
A definite for any BMW bike enthusiast.


5beemer heaven  Jan 24, 2010 By Michael H. Loomis "happy feet"
I love this book! The photos are EXCELLENT as is the story of BMW's history. Although I read it cover to cover six weeks ago I'm still picking it up to look the photos over. I especially enjoy reading the praises for my post 1995 boxer- a well rounded dream machine but then aren't all BMWs? BUY THIS BOOK.
