A the Milan Motorbike Show this week, BMW launched yet another variant of the 800cc motorcycle, their new F 800 R naked roadster. It's due to be on sale in May 2009, power will be 87bhp from the parallel twin 4-valve engine.

Apparently the new BMW F 800 R will on show at the forthcoming Carole Nash International Motorcycle and Scooter Show at the Birmingham NEC here in the UK at the end of this month.

However potentially more exciting BMW will be showing off their new race bike the BMW S 1000 RR at the Carole Nash International Motorcycle and Scooter Show. With this new track machine BMW intend to challenge the Italian and Japanese factories in world class racing. But the even better news is this should lead to a road going version of the BMW S 1000 RR, which should be on sale in early 2010.

In the meantime we've a pic of each new BMW bike for you to enjoy.
