BMW S 1000 R 2018

BMW S 1000 R 2018

The BMW S 1000 R impresses across the board and is much more than just a naked version of the S 1000 RR. With its own character, more torque in the mid-range and first-class electronics, it sets new standards in the high-performance Naked segment. The overall package of brutal performance, excellent suspension and practical everyday use makes it one of the best naked bikes ever - and at a surprisingly fair price.

Brutal performance with 160 Horsepower

Outstanding DDC suspension

Amazing stability at high speeds for a naked bike

Perfect electronics with sensitive DTC

Good price/performance ratio

Character despite perfection

Driving mode display font too small

Too extreme appearance for BMW traditionalists

Without equipment packages, important electronic features are missing

The price advantage is lost with full features

Suzuki GSX-R 750 2006

Suzuki GSX-R 750 2006

All those riders who don't care about class constraints on the race track and don't have enough fun on the road with a 600 will find a good compromise with the 750. Satisfied 1000cc riders, however, will stay with the 1000cc. 1000cc performance with 600cc handling is not (yet) available. But almost!

The golden mean in every respect

rev-happy engine

sufficient power for the road

fast enough on the racetrack

Chassis components not of high enough quality for serious racetrack use
