The 2011 BMW S 1000 RR is a 403-pound 1000cc superbike, equipped with water/oil-cooled, four-cylinder, 16-titanium valve engine that churns out 193 bhp and 83 ft.lbs. of peak torque, with a massive 14200 rpm redline. It’s oversquare with a bore and stroke of 80 mm x 50 mm. Design of the 2011 BMW S1000RR motorcycle displays a sport-racing tail-up nose-down posture constructed around an aluminum bridge, a relatively skinny bodywork, asymmetrical headlight (combination of round and trapezoidal lenses), and ventilation on the side fairing. Suspension is an upside down front fork and rear gas-charged shock that uses rocker arm type linkage (both ends fully adjustable). Optionally offered are electronic quick-shifter for improved acceleration, and lightweight Race ABS for extra safety in conjunction with Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) for four operating modes – rain, sport, race, and slick.
