BMW Motorrad has announced the all-new 2021 BMW S 1000 R which features a redesigned styling, improved technology, and a newly-developed engine. For 2021 BMW ditches the asymmetrical headlights used on its predecessor for a new LED unit.
The S 1000 R clearly borrows from its supersports counterpart, the S 1000 RR. To a greater extent than previously, the "tail up - nose down" look gives the S 1000 R an eye-catching dynamic visual impact with its new body elements. A distinctively designed rear section with enlarged side openings allows the rear frame to be shown to even greater advantage, thus emphasising the sporty, dynamic character of the new S 1000 R.
The in-line four-cylinder is based on the engine of the S 1000 RR and generates 165 hp at 11,000 rpm. The maximum torque of 114 Nm is available at 9 250 rpm. Acceleration from 0 to 200 km/h now only takes 8.0 s making it 5% faster than its predecessor. The new engine of the S 1000 R now provides even more thrust in the lower and medium speed range than its predecessor, which wasn’t known for a lack of power in this range, and allows for ballistic performance while ensuring the rider always maintains absolute control. The new S 1000 R is equipped with engine drag torque control (MSR) for the first time as an optional extra.
The chassis was also subjected to significant weight reduction, just like the entire motorcycle. The S 1000 R is the lightest dynamic roadster in its class. The extensive weight reduction measures taken in the new S 1000 R result in a total weight saving of 5.1 kg compared to its predecessor and a low DIN empty weight of 199 kg.
The frame and the underslung swingarm are based on the S 1000 RR and have been made considerably lighter in than their predecessor. The centrepiece of the suspension in the new S 1000 R is still an aluminium bridge frame, though the layout of this has been drastically altered as compared to the predecessor model. At the same time, the engine in the so-called Flex Frame takes on a much greater supporting function than before. The new frame offers further benefits due to its very narrow design.
The new S 1000 R is equipped as standard with Dynamic Traction Control DTC, ABS Pro with banking angle optimisation and the three riding modes "Rain", "Road" and "Dynamic". The new S 1000 R’s instrument cluster was also taken over from the S 1000 RR. The new S 1000 R features Hill Start Control to facilitate starting on gradients as standard.
"With our new S 1000 R, we have tried to preserve the strengths of its predecessor and to take into account the potentials known to us from press and customer feedback in the new S 1000 R. The team also made perfect use of the benefits provided by the new architecture" said, Ralf Mölleken, Project Manager Complete Vehicle.
