2018 BMW S 1000R

2018 BMW S 1000R


The S1000R competes with the very best roadsters from around the world, bringing to the table BMW’s killer 999cc inline-4 cylinder motor from the S1000RR superbike.


The goal was to create an all-around enjoyable naked motorcycle that would hold its own in any riding condition.

Great lengths were taken into making the S1000R as slim and compact as possible, while still retaining comfort, handling, and performance. In essence,
the S1000R is a visually stripped down version of their flagship superbike. So, this is in no way a downer.


Chock full of riding aids and safety technology, the S1000R might be down 30hp from it’s sportbike brother, but make no mistake as 160hp is still a whole lot of power to tame on our roads. 


While the looks from the headlight might polarize some, the overall styling is on point and akin to the S1000RR superbike. Sleek lines, nice colorways, and clean angles make the S1000R stand out in traffic.



BMW has a knack for making their bikes safe and accessible to ride for most, and fewer still will be able to push the limits on the road. Almost every control surface of the motorcycle has some sort of active or passive safety technology.


Electronically adjustable Sachs suspension was an awesome addition.


Dashboard is easy to read and the menus can be cycled easily.


The 160hp power plant doesn’t disappoint, and the added responsiveness of the 112Nm of torque at lower RPMs make this motorcycle a blast to ride on the backroads.


BMW also changed the geometry of the cast aluminium frame to better suit the more upright seating position. The fork rake is less steep, and the wheelbase has been lengthened to give the bike greater stability.

Seating position is comfortable, with the bars providing nice leverage.
