BMW S 1000 R HP4
When light weight, massive
power and razor-sharp handling are combined, the result is known as HP - High
Performance. The new HP4 is BMW Motorrad's first 4-cylinder model to wear the
HP badge. Based on the S 1000 RR, a purebred factory motorcycle has been
developed - made from the very best materials and molded into unparalleled
design.
For riders looking for an extra
level of refinement, this is the HP4 with Competition Package. It's loaded with
additional HP components: HP brake lever, HP clutch lever and the HP rider
footrest system. The HP belly pan and the HP fuel tank trim are made of carbon
fiber. It also features Racing Blue aluminum forged wheels and a sponsor
sticker kit.
The HP4 Competition also has
the consecutively numbered fork bridge engraving with HP logo. This makes each
and every machine unique. The Competition Package will be highly exclusive with
very limited numbers available.
For riders not content with
race track performance alone, we proudly present the HP4 Carbon Edition. With
its additional HP components it makes a striking impression: HP brake lever, HP
clutch lever and HP rider footrest system. The long, closed HP engine spoiler,
the HP plate holder and the HP fuel tank trim are made entirely of carbon. Its
most conspicuous hallmarks are the aluminium forged wheels in Racing blue and
the sponsor sticker kit - so its unique quality lies not just in its
performance but in its design, too, making it a perfect synthesis of quality
that is impossible to miss.
The HP4 Carbon also has the
consecutively numbered fork bridge engraving with HP logo. This makes each and
every machine a unique specimen. Due to the involved manufacturing process and
the limited availability of the high-quality carbon components, only a few models
can be made during the manufacturing phase up to 2014. The new HP4 Carbon:
uniquely exclusive.
The lightest 4-cylinder engine
in the segment provides uncompromising power with an output of 193 bhp and a
maximum torque of 83 lb-ft. The new exhaust silencer provides a higher level of
torque in the mid-range, so there is power available where it's needed most to
deliver stunning lap times.
With the world's first ever
dynamic suspension system DDC (Dynamic Damping Control), the HP4 is the most
advanced production sporting motorcycle ever built. DDC automatically adapts
the suspension damping to the situation at hand. Various modes are available to
choose from: Rain and Sport for public roads, Race and Slick for the race
track. The further enhanced Dynamic Traction Control on the HP4 supplements
this perfectly. It can be finely adjusted in Slick mode to dial in the perfect
balance between system support and rider control. The result is transparent
feedback, maximum traction and optimum acceleration.
Price starts from US$ 20,300 (including ABS).
