== Overview ==
BMW S 1000RR Motorsport




















.The BMW S 1000 RR
will be available in motorsport livery.
In this case the paintwork is modern Alpine
White Non-Metallic, Magma Red Non-Metallic, and Lupin Blue Metallic, with the
swing arms also fi nished in eloxy Silver and the wheels in high-gloss Black.
The frame comes in Black on all color variants. An additional optical highlight
on all color variants is the red spring on the spring strut unit.

The BMW S 1000 RR develops
142 kW (193 hp) at 13,000 rpm and 112 Nm (82.5 lb-ft) at 9,750 rpm and weighs
206.5 kg (455.3lb) in road trim and with a full tank. The engine of the BMW S
1000 RR borrows technology from the company's Formula One power unit, including
a high-speed valve drive with individual cam followers and titanium valves.

The BMW S 1000 RR also features an innovative exhaust system with a small and
short muffler, pre-silencer and electronically controlled interference pipe
flaps.





It may not have the race-proven
heritage of a GSX-R, ZX-R, CBR-RR or YZF-R, but the BMW S1000RR has something
which its litre-class competition doesnt  an inline-four that makes all of 193
horsepower at the crank. Indeed, with a (claimed) 180bhp at the rear wheel, the
S1000RR is the most powerful of all current litre-class production bikes. And
with a top speed of 290km/h, its also the fastest.

Consider the spec  an engine that revs to 14,200rpm, cutting-edge engine
management, ABS and DTC traction control systems, a gearshift assistant
feature that allows full-throttle upshifts without using the clutch,
track-optimized aluminum chassis and optional Akrapovic exhaust system. Then
theres the fully adjustable 46mm front fork, lightweight aluminum wheels,
high-spec Brembo brakes with four-piston radial-mount callipers and a claimed
dry weight of 182 kilos. The S1000RR sure looks like its been built with a
single-minded focus  to go around a racetrack as fast as possible. And with
prices starting at US$13,800 (European prices start at around 16,000 euro for
the basic model, and 17,400 euro for the bike with ABS and DTC), the bike isnt
all that expensive either.


The guys over at MotorBox recently had the opportunity to test ride the S1000RR
at the Portimao circuit in Portugal, and they came away with some interesting
observations. Here are some excerpts from their test report:

Creating a brand-new sportsbike powered by an inline-four couldnt have been an
easy task even for a company like BMW, whose prowess with technology is second
to none. Also, the bike comes at a time when the market for big sportsbikes
seems to be slowing down a bit. Still, BMW really believe in this product, which
they admit has been engineered for an audience thats external to the brand 
people who have until now been riding Japanese or Italian bikes.

To begin with, there isnt anything incredibly original about the S1000RR, there
isnt much out of the box thinking here. All the bits  the inline-four
engine, the aluminum double beam frame and even the high-tech electronics 
its all been done before by other manufacturers. And yet, the bike has a very
sophisticated engine, with titanium valves, two fuel injectors per cylinder and
ride-by-wire throttle control. It produces 193bhp and 112Nm of torque at
13,000rpm and 9,750rpm respectively, and the 14,200rpm redline is very high for
a litre-bike engine. With its dry weight of 182kg, the S1000RR has the best
power-to-weight ratio in its segment.




And if the engine is powerful, the
rest of the package  including the chassis, suspension and the electronics 
has been engineered to allow the rider to fully exploit all that power. On this
bike, the optional electronics  Race ABS and Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) 
have been designed specifically for use on a supersports machine and are there
to help you go faster rather than just rein in all that Bavarian horsepower.

The S1000RRs DTC system is very high-tech and apart from the detecting
difference in front and rear wheels speeds, its sensors can also detect the
bikes angle of lean, on the basis of which it decides when and by how much to
reduce power. There are four modes  rain, sport, race and slick, with the last
one being recommended for track use only, with race-compound slick tyres. As you
move from rain to sport and race modes, power delivery becomes increasingly
direct and aggressive, while the role of ABS and DTC is progressively reduced.
In slick mode, ABS does not work on the bikes rear wheel and the traction
control is dialled back to an absolute minimum. Both systems can also be
disabled completely, if the rider wants it so.

Coming to the styling, well, some will definitely think that its rather ugly.
The asymmetrical fairing and headlight is what youd typically expect from BMW,
but maybe theres something to be said for the German company refusing to
conform to other manufacturers idea of beauty.

Coming to the riding experience, the S1000RR was very well suited to the very
demanding Portimao circuit. The riding position is just about okay, though the
bikes handlebars seem to be more suited to the track than the street. We
started the ride with the DTC in rain mode, in order to get familiar with the
bike and understand how its electronics really work. The response from the
bikes ride-by-wire throttle is absolutely perfect and in the low-threshold rain
mode, if you open the throttle at the wrong time, the computers simply refuse to
delivery power to the rear wheel. There are, however, no jolts or sudden jerky
movement  everything happens very smoothly, with the electronics working hard
to remain as unobtrusive as possible.





In sport mode, the bike really comes alive and
from 7,000rpm upwards, power delivery becomes furious, lofting the front wheel
effortlessly in third gear and blasting the bike down hundreds of yards before
you even remember to roll back the throttle. Suddenly, those 193 horses make
their presence felt in a very big way. In fact, you begin to wonder if the bike
might actually be making a bit more. When we tested the Ducati 1198 on this
track earlier, the fastest we did was 259km/h. With the BMW, it was 279km/h and
we knew there was more to come.

Things become a bit more abrupt in race mode, especially while exiting corners,
and it seems the DTC system often has to work overtime to keep things in check.
To quote one example, if you crank open the throttle with the bike still fully
leant over, the bike will not respond till the computers deem its upright
enough, and then all the horsepower comes stampeding in, in a rush. Still, the
DTC is always very smooth and consistent, and remains as unobtrusive as
possible.


In terms of handling, the S1000RR probably isnt as agile as a Honda CBR1000RR
or Aprilia RSV4, but is still a remarkably balanced package. On the Portimao
circuit, the bike felt light and accurate, and very little suspension tweaking
was needed to make the bike work. With Metzeler Raceteck K3 rubber, grip was
never an issue and a best lap time of 1:57 speaks for itself.

Riding this BMW felt really different from anything else that weve previously
ridden. Yes, the S1000RR is a remarkable bike  not just because of the outright
performance it offers, but also for the ease with which that performance can be
accessed by the rider.
