BMW S 1000 R 2015

With the BMW S 1000 R, you notice both the close relationship to the S 1000 RR superbike and the endeavour to equip the machine with a high degree of comfort for country roads and everyday use. Accordingly, the 1000cc four-cylinder power unit is brute and yet easily controllable, and the seating position is correspondingly sporty and comfortable. The fact that the S 1000 R is one of the most affordable power naked bikes is surprising and very pleasing, although one must not get hold of the list of optional extras - because thanks to the many irresistible features, it will certainly be more expensive.

The FZ1 should leave no one cold. Visually and technically, it currently marks the pinnacle of the Japanese naked bike league.

Very powerful

extremely high speeds possible

joy in cornering

harsh sound

impressive engine.

Not for automatic fans: Starting could be a little more pleasant, more direct

turbulence at high speeds, idiosyncratic exhaust design.
