  <strong>Munich/Cernobbio. </strong>As part of the prestigious Concorso
  d'Eleganza Villa d'Este at Lake Como, BMW Motorrad unveils its latest
  creation for the superbike segment: the BMW Motorrad Concept RR as the
  ultimate performance statement in terms of technology and design for
  the future generation of BMW RR models.</p>
<p>Markus Flasch, Head of BMW Motorrad: "Never before has BMW
  Motorrad provided such an early glimpse into a future generation of
  the RR models. The BMW Motorrad<br />Concept RR is a true masterpiece
  of our development team, both technically and in terms of design
  language. Guided and inspired by the BMW Motorrad factory
  superbike<br />M 1000 RR, with which BMW Motorrad factory rider Toprak
  Razgatlioğlu was able to dominantly win the FIM World Superbike
  Championship last year, the Concept RR offers a true firework of
  superlatives for both street and track use. The transfer from racing
  to road has never been shown more clearly. It represents BMW
  Motorrad's leadership claim to offer the highest engineering level and
  maximum performance in this segment."</p>
<p>
  <strong>Maximum performance, based on the BMW factory superbike.</strong></p>
<p>BMW Motorrad engages in motorsport out of passion and conviction – on
  the tracks of the FIM Superbike World Championship as well as in
  numerous national and international championships. Every day, the BMW
  Motorrad team lives the symbiosis of engineering excellence and an
  unyielding drive for top performance anew. This dedication is
  reflected in every detail of our superbikes, and the valuable insights
  gained from racing are incorporated into our production models.</p>
<p>In terms of propulsion, the BMW Motorrad Concept RR relies on the
  water-cooled inline four-cylinder engine of the world champion machine
  from the FIM Superbike World Championship, which already delivers more
  than 230 hp (169 kW). This promises pure adrenaline in terms of
  propulsion and reinforces the leadership claim in the superbike
  segment. Accompanying this are the electronic control and regulation
  systems that come directly from the WSBK M 1000 RR, such as the engine
  management, traction control, and engine brake.</p>
<p>
  <strong>New benchmark in terms of lightweight construction and aerodynamics.</strong></p>
<p>By innovative manufacturing techniques and the use of high-tech
  materials such as carbon and aluminum, the BMW Motorrad Concept RR
  sets new benchmarks in lightweight construction. From the frame to the
  smallest component, every detail is consistently optimized for
  lightweight construction and performance. The design also follows this
  principle: sharp, purposeful, expressive - with an embossed RR logo on
  the tail and an illuminated RR symbol on the downside of the delicate
  aluminum tail.</p>
<p>The BMW Motorrad engineers placed special emphasis on aerodynamics,
  particularly on the challenging objectives of "riding stability
  at very high speeds," "maximum cornering speeds," and
  "minimal air resistance for optimal top speed." These
  competing goals are realized by the Concept RR through an
  unprecedentedly compact package, reduced external attachments, and
  enhanced precision of airflow, even through the motorcycle – from the
  ventilated front to the monolithic, also ventilated, aerodynamically
  optimized rear.</p>
<p>In addition, the concept bike is equipped with an aerodynamically
  optimized fairing with integrated winglets and high-performance brakes
  – uncompromisingly perfected for ambitious super-sporty use on the
  road up to professional racing.</p>
<p>
  <strong>The matching outfit – the jacket Concept RR LTD.</strong></p>
<p>BMW Motorrad has been consistently implementing the claim to make
  motorcycling as safe and comfortable as possible with perfectly
  designed clothing, while also stylishly shaping the motorcycle
  lifestyle with attractive fashion, for more then 45 years. Today, it
  offers a comprehensive program of Riders Gear and Casual Wear. Once
  again, the maxim for BMW Motorrad is: Make existing things even better
  and simultaneously develop new innovative solutions. Accordingly, on
  the occasion of the presentation of the<br />BMW Motorrad Concept RR,
  a unique lifestyle jacket was developed: <br />the Concept RR LTD
  jacket, limited to 50 units. A masterpiece made of fine calf Nappa
  leather, crafted in cooperation with the traditional Bavarian company
  MEINDL, this jacket combines motorsport flair with the highest
  craftsmanship and exclusivity.</p><div class="import-contacts-wrapper"><div class="import-contact">Press Contact: Marc Belcourt<br>Tel: +1-905-428-5078<br>E-mail: <a href="mailto:marc.belcourt@bmwgroup.ca">marc.belcourt@bmwgroup.ca</a></div></div></div>]]></description><category><![CDATA[Press Release,Concept Vehicles &amp; Design,S 1000 RR,S Series,K67,Product,BMW Motorrad]]></category>

  <strong>The new BMW M 1000 RR, BMW S 1000 RR, BMW M 1000 R, and BMW S
    1000 R: The superbikes and hyper naked bikes are set to enter the
    upcoming season with even more dynamism.<br /></strong>Both the
  superbikes M 1000 RR and S 1000 RR, as well as the emotional hyper
  naked bikes<br />M 1000 R and S 1000 R, have been technically and
  visually updated and come with expanded standard features for the
  upcoming motorcycle season. Common changes include the Euro 5+
  homologation of the engines and the inclusion of the M short-stroke
  throttle with a reduced rotation angle.</p>
<p>
  <strong>BMW M 1000 RR: Drastically Increased Performance through
    Enhanced Downforce, and Steering Angle Sensor Technology.</strong></p>
<p>The new M 1000 RR features optimized aerodynamics through a newly
  designed front fairing. The newly constructed M Winglets 3.0, with
  drastically increased downforce, support even faster lap times on the
  racetrack. Furthermore, the Flex Frame has been further developed and
  now includes a new engine mount on the left side.</p>
<p>BMW Motorrad has also made improvements to the control systems. The
  Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) now features the new Slide Control
  function thanks to steering angle sensor technology. This has resulted
  in a new subdivision of the DTC into Slip Control and Slide Control.
  The introduction of steering angle sensor technology has also led to
  the new Brake Slide Assist function of the BMW Race ABS Pro. Combined
  with the M short-stroke throttle, this results in significantly
  increased performance and control.</p>
<p>As before, the new M RR is offered in two versions: the M 1000 RR
  base variant in the primary color Lightwhite uni and the<br />M 1000
  RR M Competition in the primary color Blackstorm metallic, each
  combined with graphics in M colors.</p>
<p>
  <strong>BMW S 1000 RR: Even higher track performance and significantly
    enhanced standard features.<br /></strong>The S 1000 RR –
  abbreviated as Double-R – has been significantly refined, especially
  for track use. The M short-stroke throttle allows the S 1000 RR to
  respond even more directly to every command at the throttle, new
  winglets provide increased downforce, a new front wheel cover with
  integrated brake ducts improves brake cooling, and new fairing side
  panels offer a more striking design.</p>
<p>Additionally, the standard features of the Double-R have been
  significantly enhanced. The Pro riding modes are now standard,
  including additional "Race Pro" modes, two more combinations
  of throttle response and engine torque, as well as the Engine Brake
  and Hill Start Control Pro functions, five-level adjustable ABS in the
  "Race Pro" modes, and the ABS setting "Slick." The
  Dynamic Brake Control (DBC) is also a new standard feature.</p>
<p>The new S 1000 RR is offered in three attractive color schemes: the
  base variant in Blackstorm metallic, the Sport model variant in
  Bluestone metallic with matte graphic applications, and the M
  Motorsport variant in Lightwhite uni/M Motorsport in combination with
  the M package.</p>
<p>
  <strong>BMW M 1000 R: Refinement for the M Hyper Naked
  Bike.<br /></strong>For the upcoming season, the M 1000 R –
  abbreviated as M R – has received a more dynamic design with the new
  dual-flow LED headlight derived from the RR models and the M logo in
  the air intake between the headlights.</p>
<p>The new M 1000 R is available as a base variant in the color scheme
  Lightwhite uni/M Motorsport and in the new color White Aluminium
  metallic matt. In the M Competition equipment variant, this paint is
  also available alongside the color scheme Blackstorm metallic/M Motorsport.</p>
<p>In all color schemes, the rear frame and swingarm of the new model
  year are in Platinum Grey metallic. The winglets are finished in black
  textured paint, and the covers for the clutch and generator are also
  coated in black.</p>
<p>The traction control DTC has also been revised. The control strategy
  has been derived from the RR models and, in combination with the M
  short-stroke throttle, brings a noticeable improvement, especially in
  Race mode for track days.</p>
<p>An expanded range of Original BMW Motorrad accessories and special
  equipment completes the scope of changes.</p>
<p>
  <strong>BMW S 1000 R: Hyper Naked Bike with increased power and
    enhanced standard features.<br /></strong>The hyper naked bike S
  1000 R – abbreviated as Single-R – now starts with an even more
  powerful inline-four engine, offering 125 kW (170 hp). A shorter final
  drive ratio enhances sprint performance. The optimized standard Shift
  Assistant Pro supports even smoother gear changes. Combined with the
  new M short-stroke throttle, this results in a significantly more
  dynamic setup and noticeably better acceleration in all situations.
  Additionally, the traction control DTC of the S 1000 R benefits from
  the revisions made to the DTC from the M 1000 R, further enhancing its performance.</p>
<p>The new Single-R also receives the new dual-flow LED headlight
  derived from the RR models, providing a more striking appearance. The
  expanded standard features of the<br />S 1000 R include the engine
  drag torque control (MSR) with configurable "Engine Brake,"
  a short license plate holder, a USB-C charging socket under the seat,
  and the intelligent emergency call E-Call.</p>
<p>The new Single-R is offered in three attractive color schemes: the
  base variant in Blackstorm metallic, the Sport model variant in
  Bluefire/Mugiallo Yellow, and in combination with the M package in
  Lightwhite uni/M Motorsport.</p>
