BMW S1000R Bike Features
The S1000R is a stripped down version
of the S1000RR and BMW calls the naked design as �focused on
the essentials�. While the bike boasts of an aggressive
stance, the company has kept the overall styling of the bike
similar to the S1000RR. However, there are a few changes
that differentiate it from the race version sibling. The
fairing is replaced by the radiator shrouds that cover the
engine partly. It gets the BMW typical asymmetrical dual
headlights. The bike is available in three colours- racing
red, light white and frozen dark metallic blue.
The BMW S1000R is powered by the same engine that powers the
RR, which is a four-stroke, 999cc, oil-cooled, in-line
four-cylinder mill. However, BMW Motorrad has made changes
to the delivery of peak power and torque figures. The S1000R
is re-tuned to churn out 160bhp of power at 11,000rpm and a
torque of 112Nm at 9250rpm.
For safety, the BMW S1000R is equipped with ABS and ASC
(Automatic Stability Control) as standard. The bike comes
with various riding modes to choose from such as Rain, Road,
Dynamic and Dynamic R. The Dynamic and Dynamic R modes are
Pro modes which are offered as an option while the other two
modes are standard on the bike.
BMW Motorrad offers a �Standard Package� with the S1000R
which comes with all the above four modes, a gearshift
assist, DTC (Dynamic Traction Control) and a cruise control
system. A �Premium Package� is available that includes the
Standard Package along with DDC (Dynamic Damping Control)
and heated grips. Performance upgrades are also offered to
buyers who want more out of their bikes.
The S1000R goes up against the Kawasaki Z1000 in the Indian
market. However, the BMW S1000R is brought to India via the
CBU route and thus costs almost double the price of the
Z1000.
