The BMW C1 200, launched in 2003, was a unique and innovative motorcycle that boldly stepped away from the traditional two-wheeled design. It was classified as a "scooter motorcycle" by BMW, offering a blend of scooter practicality with the performance and handling of a motorcycle. The C1 was a single-seater vehicle with a sleek, enclosed body that provided weather protection, a feature rarely found in motorcycles at the time. It featured a distinctive, aerodynamically designed canopy that could be opened and closed with a hydraulic mechanism, providing the rider with a comfortable and wind-protected experience. Its suspension system included telescopic forks at the front and a swingarm with a single spring strut at the rear, providing a comfortable ride.

Powering the C1 200 was a 199cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine that generated 19 hp. This engine, paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), provided a smooth and responsive power delivery, making it suitable for both city commutes and highway riding. The C1 200 also incorporated a number of safety features, including a roll-over protection system (ROPS) that deployed in case of a crash, and a seatbelt system, a feature unprecedented in the motorcycle world. Despite its uniqueness and innovative features, the C1 200 faced challenges in the market. While it offered a unique blend of practicality and performance, its higher price point and unusual design made it less popular than conventional motorcycles, leading to its discontinuation in 2003.
