S 1000 RR

THE BMW S 1000 RR
THE SUPERBIKE REDEFINED.

Always pushing to the limit and in search of the ideal line? You've now got 152 kW (207 HP) of unbridled power to push your RR to the max. With a maximum torque of 113 Nm at 11,000 rpm and a torque curve of at least 100 Nm over a range of 5,500 to 14,500 [rpm], it's time to unleash pure performance. Ten years after the first generation of the RR first mesmerized the world of motorcycles, we're now entering the next level of performance. We have revised almost every component of the RR - the result: less weight and noticeably higher performance. Are you ready for the pole position and victory? The RR awaits you.

Designed for pole position.

Lay eyes on this bike and you are immediately aware: This is a serious high performance motorcycle. Every part of the RR has been designed for maximum performance. The frame layout with its new suspension technology makes the RR lighter and more precise. In addition, the ergonomically perfected seating position is unrivalled thanks to the modified frame and fairing design. The standard LED headlights give the bike an absolutely dynamic and aggressive look. The front indicators have wandered from the fairing to the rearview mirrors, which not only looks aesthetically pleasing, but also provides improved visibility. Seen from the rear, the RR dominates in terms of design and functionality: "All-in-one" is the motto here. In addition to number plate lighting, the number plate holder now also includes LED turn signals, tail lights and brake lights.

Ready for the circuit.

When it comes to top performance, the RR is your perfect partner. Not just on the road, but also on the circuit. In a few simple steps, you can dismantle both the rearview mirror and the number plate holder to transform your racing bike.

The optionally available M Package turns your RR into the ultimate racing machine. The weight is reduced by around 3.5 kg down to a mere 193.5 kg. In addition to the Motorsport finish, the M carbon wheels, the M battery, the M seat, the M tail rising and the M swing arm pivot you also receive Pro riding modes with the configurable riding modes Race Pro 1-3 and electronic assistance systems, such as DTC +/- Shift, ABS Settings, engine mappings, wheelie control and slide control and a whole lot more.

Four cylinders and unrivalled performance.

The newly designed, four-cylinder engine is the new RR power train. Not only was the peak output increased to 152 kW (207 HP) at 13,500 rpm, but the torque curve was also optimized. And thanks to the new BMW ShiftCam technology, which selects the valve opening time and the valve lift by means of camshaft, even in low and medium engine speed ranges significantly more torque and power is applied.

In addition, numerous other components were adapted to further optimize weight, space and design. These include a new timing concept, hollow-drilled titanium intake valves and an improved and self-reinforcing multi-disc, anti-hopping wet clutch (-20N). The engine is now 4 kg lighter and narrower, which improves both the handling and the ergonomics. You will notice this immediately when you first get on.

Technology made for maximum performance in every situation.

The RR is a technical high-flyer with road grip: The four standard modes RAIN, ROAD, DYNAMIC and RACE already cover numerous riding styles in a variety of conditions. Pro mode as a special accessory lays the racing world at your feet with the three additional modes RACE Pro 1, RACE Pro 2 and RACE Pro 3, with Launch Control, Pitlane Limiter, HSC Pro (Hill Start Control Pro) and DBC (Dynamic Brake Control). With the multi-controller you can configure the following settings via the full-colour 6.5" TFT display: the throttle response incl. engine characteristics, the engine braking torque, the traction control (DTC) incl. wheelie control, ABS and DDC (Dynamic Damping Control). And with the push of a button you can adjust the settings while riding via DTC +/- Shift. Thanks to the latest 6-axis sensor technology and torque precontrol, DTC support is particularly smooth and powerful. The procedure takes place no matter the gear, speed and inclination.

With the next-generation DTC, you get more efficient, powerful and safer traction control and thus even more forward momentum.

More stability and better force application.

The new RR has, as the only street-legal standard superbike, an aluminium undercarriage, which had previously only been used on the racing scene. The 0.3 kg less weight significantly reduces the unsprung mass and results in significantly less reaction from the chassis when accelerating. In addition, the shock absorber, which can be adjusted in terms of tension and rebound as well as the suspension, is installed farther away from the engine and is thus less exposed to heat. This has significant advantages for the shock absorber. By changing the strut ratio from 1.9:1 to 1.65:1 and having a larger damper piston, a smaller spring rate was able to be selected. This friction minimization increases comfort and performance since the power build-up in the strut occurs quickly and accurately. The entire system is thus much gentler on the tires.

Perfect damping on all routes.

With the special accessory Dynamic Damping Control (DDC), the control philosophy of the electronic chassis as well as the mechanical damping component were newly developed. Regardless of whether you're on a country road or the circuit - the electronic valve always provides the maximum damping, depending on the riding mode and purpose. It is now parallel to the mechanical valve. If necessary, the damping is reduced or increased in 10 ms via this bypass line. The newly anodized floating piston rod is extremely sensitive. If required, the Shim Package can also be adapted by chassis specialists.

Performance you can see

The RR doesn't shy away from a challenge. This is not only evident from its sporty design, but also the technology that's inside.
