  • The S1000RR started off life as a super sports bike made solely to compete in the 2009 Superbike World Championship. But the response was so tremendous that BMW decided to go for mass production. The 999cc engine produces 193hp at an insanely high 13000rpm and 112nm at 9750rpm."We intend to take the four Japanese head-on. We did not intend to build a motorcycle like Ducati does or KTM does. We wanted to build a mainstream motorcycle." There were a number who doubted Pieter de Waal, Vice President of BMW Motorrad USA.

  • BMW K1300S is the bike with 1293 CC, 4 stroke inline four Cylinder Engine with 6 speed gear box. It offers a 140 Nm @ 8250 rpm torque. Increasing engine capacity to 1,293 cc while maintaining maximum engine speed of 11,000 rpm ultimately led to a significant improvement of performance, power and torque. In its fundamental qualities, the K 1300 S is based on the proven drivetrain configuration and engine arrangement of its predecessor, using the existing advantage of a low centre of gravity made possible by the extreme angle of the cylinder bank tilted 55° to the front and allowing very low arrangement of the engine.
