It was the Treaty of Versailles that changed the face of BMW. By the end of World War 1, BMW was a manufacturer of aircraft engines. The famous blue and white circular mark, which is said to represent aircraft propellers in motion, is a reminder of the history of the company. The fact that the logo from all the colors of the flag of Bavaria, and used a good 12 years before BMW began to build aircraft engines, has done nothing to influence the popular myth.

When the German air force was disbanded and banned after the war, BMW had to focus somewhere else for dinner on the table. After a brief flirtation with the manufacturer of farm machinery and even office furniture, which began building motorcycles. At that time, the chief designer was a man named Max Friz, who was responsible for the famous Boxer engines, the first was based on a British Douglas design.
In 1923 the R32 was born, which was the basis for future BMW boxer engine to be done. This engine uses the drive shaft to all BMW motorcycles up position until 1994.
BMW motorcycles were invaluable in North Africa during World War II to prove 2. Not having a chain that could clog with sand, was so successful that Harley-Davidson, requested by the U. S. Army machine, which duly did and produced a copy Harley-Davidson XA. With the German war machine insatiable for motorcycles, the company flourished during the years of war, but Germany downhill, so did BMW. The factory in Munich was destroyed by bombing during the war and after the Russians Eisenach dismantling and reassembly in Irbit. Not only that, but the cream of their engineers were taken to Russia or the United States to work on jet engines research.
