Default S1000rr

Okay, this comes from the BMW test area in Landeck Austria. There is a S1000rr to experience though they say the immense power and the large turn radius can be a bit of a handful.
The specs as given by BM are ( in brief)-
999cc, max power is 142 KW or 193 ps at 13000 rpm, there is a 3 way cat convertor, tyres are 120/70 ZR17 and 190/55 ZR 17 , dry wt is 183 kg , laden wt is 203 kg.
The swingarm is a glop of stainless, the exhaust note is threatening and the seating is far forward. Carbon fibre parts abound for weight decrease.
Hope to get it under my butt in the next few days ,God willing.
Regards,
Prashant Gosavi

Thanks manshood.
For a BMW car & bike lover, I hope you have seen Day 7 of my European bike trip. Lots of photos there from the BMW World & Museum in Munich.
FOUR countries, SEVEN days, 1300kms & ONE Spectacular Ride in the Alps

As for the actual BMW bike, if all goes well you may get to see (& photograph) an R1200GS bike passing thru Kodungalur during mid-September. Dont ask who the rider is, but he speaks very good malayalam .

Hope you have seen the crisp xBhp photos on the S1000RR

Hi haven't seen BMW in physical form. Thanks a ton for all the details mentioned and the pics. BMW truly has the state of the art features for a bike and especially to this untapped market in India.

eagerly awaiting for such releases in India
