When it comes to city riding or commuting to work on a motorcycle, safety is the first consideration and then you need comfort and smooth performance. The BMW motorcycles for city life are the F 650 CS, K 1200 R, R1150 R, and the R 1150 R Rockster. The F 650 CS looks like a dirt bike, but rides effortlessly on city streets with increased fuel efficiency and agility to match. At $7850 it's affordable and safe. The K 1200 R has 163 HP and is the fastest naked bike to roll off the assembly line at BMW. It's double what the F 650 CS costs ($14300), but the ride is more enjoyable with the acceleration and improved handling. The R 1150 R is perfect for fast takeoffs and winding down backroads. It's priced at just under $11K. With a unique paint job, the R 1150 R Rockster will draw attention, but the shorter wheelbase allows you to quickly maneuver through traffic on crowded city streets.
