Vikram Pawah, President and CEO of BMW Group India said, “The new BMW S 1000 RR continues with its endless strive for improvement and success securing its leading position. It is a favourite amongst racing enthusiasts looking out for the next thrill. The new BMW S 1000 RR with even higher track performance is the Superbike icon. BMW Motorrad has once again set emphasis on sporty aspirations and the BMW DNA, making what’s good even better.”
Riders can further customise with two optional packages – Dynamic and M. The Dynamic package sharpens the RR’s racing qualities for added performance and comfort. The package includes: DDC electronic chassis, which is exclusive to use in motorsports here, for optimum damping and optimum road contact in every riding situation, additionally electronic cruise control and heated grips are also included.
The M package sharpens the sporty profile of the RR. Exclusive Light white/M Motorsport paintwork is only included in this package and gives the motorcycle a powerful look. The package includes: M Sport seat for optimum support on the hunt for crucial milliseconds. Weight-optimised M Carbon wheels with M Tapes for maximum riding dynamics. In addition, the M footrest system and the black fuel filler cap.
Further, to make the newly launched motorcycle accessible to the masses, BMW Financial Services India is offering flexible and hassle-free finance solutions. It also includes accessories financing, ensuring that riders are fully equipped for the experience.
The design of the new BMW S 1000 RR impresses with its extremely compact layout and super-sporty appeal that creates perfect harmony for the road and racetrack. The high windscreen, side winglets and partitioning of the lower triple clamp further optimise aerodynamics and help in maintaining the top speed.
The winglets on the front fairing of the new RR now produce significantly more aerodynamic downforce – both in an upright riding position and when leaning. At 300 km/h, the downforce has been increased from the previous 17.1 kg to now 23.1 kg. The positive effects include greater rider confidence in the front wheel for even larger lean angles or higher cornering speeds at the same lean angle, as well as reduced wheelie tendency.
The new BMW S 1000 RR features the potent inline-four engine with BMW ShiftCam Technology. The 999cc generates 210 hp at 13,750 rpm to ensure powerful propulsion.
The 6-speed gearbox allows ease of engagement, no slippage and precise shifts.
The new RR distinguishes between two riding mode worlds: for the road and for the track. Apart from the four standard riding modes “Rain,” “Road,” “Dynamic,” and “Race”, the new BMW S 1000 RR now also includes “Pro Riding Modes” with the additional riding modes “Race Pro 1,” “Race Pro 2,” and “Race Pro 3” as standard.
Standard equipment has been expanded to include the lighter M battery and USB charging socket.
The introductory ex-showroom prices start from Rs 21,10,000.
