New BMW S 1000 RR

BMW has unveiled its new S 1000 RR supersport motorcycle, which is the production version of the bike that made its debut Monza Italy round of the World Superbike Championship.

Technical highlights of the S 1000 RR include:

• A power output of 193 bhp at 13,000 rpm with peak torque 82.5 lb-ft (112 Nm) at 9,750 rpm.
  



• The S 1000 RR weighs 206.5 kg in road trim. With a full tank, this is the lightest supersport bike with ABS in the 1000-cc class.
  



• The dry weight is 183 kg.
  
  



• It has the best power-to-weight ratio in its class: just 1.05 kg and 1.06 kg per horsepower without/with Race ABS.
  
  



• The optional Race ABS gives outstanding braking performance and safety. The weight of the entire system is just 2.5 kg, which compares favourably with similar competitor ABS systems weighing up to 10 kg.
  
  



• Optional DTC Dynamic Traction Control, in conjunction with the Race ABS, provides optimum performance and maximum active safety under acceleration.
  
  



• The S 1000 RR is the only supersport machine to offer Race ABS and DTC Dynamic Traction Control in combination.
  
  



• S 1000 RR has various riding modes available at the touch of a button, to optimise performance on wet surfaces, regular roads, race tracks with sports tyres, and race tracks with slicks.





• These four riding modes provide an all-round set-up, co-ordination and balance for the Race ABS, DTC Dynamic Traction Control and engine management.
  
  
  



• The engine features high speed, ultra-strong valve drive with individual cam followers and titanium valves, following the example of BMWs Formula 1 engines.
  
  



• The innovative exhaust system has a short rear-end muffler, pre-silencer and electronically controlled interference pipe flaps, as well as a fully controlled exhaust gas manifold and two three-way catalytic converters.
  
  



• The S 1000 RR has supreme aerodynamics and sporting ergonomics that are ideal for riders of all sizes.
  
  



• The optional HP Gearshift Assistant enables riders to speed shift up through the gears without using the clutch and with no interruption to torque or pulling power.
