BMW S1000R In India For Rs. 22.83 Lakh - Features & Specs At Glance

The lines of the S 1000 R are designed to be striking at first sight, thanks to the aggressive tail-up/nose-down design, distinctive split face and the characteristic gills. The "R" shows much less of its sharp-edged, muscular skin. Inside the aluminum composite bridge frame with partially self-supporting engine, the BMW S1000R features a Upside-down telescopic fork 46 mm, compression and rebound stage adjustable front suspension and Aluminum 2-sided swing arm, rebound damping adjustable rear suspension. There's a Constant-mesh 6-speed straight-toothed gearbox and a mechanically controlled Multiplate clutch in oil bath with anti-hopping clutch. The bike sports cast aluminium wheels and a wheelbase of 1,439 mm.

At the front are dual floating disc brakes with radial 4-piston fixed calipers, whereas on the rear there's a single piston floating caliper disc brake. The S1000R is fitted with Race ABS and ASC (automatic stability control) as standard. The company boasts that the S1000R is the only roadster to feature a highly active electronic suspension which is able to adapt to riding conditions within milliseconds. It features DTC, an assistance system with banking sensor that can support maximum possible throttle response and prevent rear wheel spin when there is reduced friction on the road surface. On the other hand, there's DDC or Dynamic Damping Control directly from the BMW HP4.
