1924: Krauser started with engine repairing, crankshaft regenerating and piston manufacturing.
1963: By overtaking the dealership of BMW a new branch was opened: The sale of BMW-cars, spareparts and service. 1970 Krauser started the motorcycle-business with BMW-dealership.
1972: The Krauser motorcycle rallye took place for the first time. This event takes place every year, until today, with about 300 participants on 250 motocycles. This event is not only a proof for spectators and critics for nice and secure motorcycle riding.
In the same year (1972) the first detachable motorcycle-pannier will be developed from Krauser. As we responded to the requirements of the young motorcycle-generation, we became the trendsetter for travelling with modern luggage.

Later we produced smaller panniers for smaller motorcycles, topboxes, softcases, innerbags, tank- and leatherbags and even panniers for the bicycle.

But also the carrier systems have been improved:
Aluminium took the place of the tube-carrier, plastic of the aluminium later.
