2014 Bmw S 1000 R, all colors available. - Conquer the roads - on the BMW S 1000 R. A roadster, reduced to the essentials: maximum performance. 160 bhp, 83 foot pounds torque and a power-to-weight ratio of 2.85 pounds per bhp - and the competition disappears in the rear mirror. Linear power: the engine. The high-performance four-cylinder in-line engine derives from the RR but has now been further optimized. The result: extremely linear torque delivery for constant forward drive across the entire engine rev range. The engine of the S 1000 R has an output of 160 bhp / 118 kW at 11,000 rpm, while a maximum of 83 foot pounds torque at 9,250 rpm puts a smile on the riders face at every twist of the throttle. Ready for attack: the design. The lines of the S 1000 R are striking at first sight, too: aggressive tail-up/nose-down design, distinctive split face and the characteristic gills. The "R" shows much less of its sharp-edged, muscular skin. Some people call it naked - we just call it focused on the essentials. Versatile: the riding modes. The S 1000 R can be reigned in and unleashed at the press of a button as standard. The "Rain" mode provides a gentle throttle response, with ABS and ASC adapted to wet road surfaces. Meanwhile "Road" optimizes throttle response, ABS and ASC for dry asphalt. The Pro modes are available as an optional extra for those chasing the threshold range: "Dynamic" and "Dynamic Pro" get the "R" into shape for the limits. Full control: Race ABS and ASC as standard. Power is nothing without control. The S 1000 R is fitted with Race ABS and ASC (automatic stability control) as standard. This duo ensures excellent acceleration and deceleration figures at threshold level. They can be activated and deactivated during travel, making for uninterrupted riding fun. No compromises: the individualization options.
