BMW S 1000 RR 2016

BMW S 1000 RR 2016

The S 1000 RR is the universal talent among the superbikes - you sit on it and feel comfortable straight away. Although it seems a bit nervous in comparison in terms of chassis and stability. However, it converts this into pleasantly easy handling and impresses with its enormous engine power. The front wheel is indeed particularly light and has to be calmed by the steering damper. An incredibly sporty and at the same time comfortable feature is the shift assistant for upshifting and downshifting - this brings calm to the chassis and you can fully concentrate on driving.

Very powerful engine

comfortable seating position

excellent shift assistant

somewhat sluggish in curves
