BMW S 1000RR - 2013



When we build a superbike, we have no time for second best. Presenting the very latest in racing power, the 2013 S 1000 RR. With an aluminum bridge-type frame, radial brakes, a super sporty tail-up nose-down design, hot colors and the ultimate combination of electronic rider assistance. The RR includes four riding modes that adjust power delivery, throttle response, Race ABS action and even Dynamic Traction Control (optional equipment).

Never before has it been so easy to keep so much power under control. This is as true on public roads as it is on the racetrack. The RR is a full-blooded racing bike, even though it can be ridden with a number plate attached. A race proven sport bike for the road.

Sports endurance at its best

9 February 2013  www.thesundaily.my



Meet the limited edition GS 1200 Rallye, one of the most loved endurance bikes in the world.

GS - mention these two alphabets to any avid biker and there's a good chance that he or she has had experienced riding one.

There's also a very good chance that after the person is done singing praises, the topic would shift to other class bikes from KTM, Ducati, Yamaha, Kawasaki and Triumph.

That's because when it comes down to sport endurance bikes, BMW has stagnated with its GS. It has been around for a while now, allowing the competition to catch up and in some cases, even surpass BMW in terms of design and technology.

But that doesn't mean the GS is not a brilliant bike that's really good at what it was designed to do, it's just that buyers now have a lot of options. But when it comes to building endurance bikes there are only a few brands that have managed to perfect it, and one of it is BMW.

The GS series is highly popular not only because it is incredibly robust in any situation, but also because it is really easy to ride on tarmac and gravel as well as urban areas like cities and such.

A nimble frame combined to a torque-laden boxer engine makes the GS one of the best all-rounders in the market today, and that probably explains why it is one of the top selling endurance bikes

in the world. Good looks aside, the GS is also one of the easiest bikes to ride. The tall ride height may be a hindrance to the vertically challenged, but expectantly BMW has thought of that and there's a low seat option, though that would take a few months to deliver as it's not readily available in Malaysia.

The ride height does not mean that you are completely safe from scrapping the foot pegs, take a corner too fast at a low lean angle on uneven roads and you will have to deal with scrapping the pegs, something that could potentially be dangerous.

But there's a solution to it, and the bike you see here, the limited edition GS 1200 Rallye comes equipped with it, the Electronic Suspension Adjustment system, or ESA.

Featuring three different driving modes.

THE NEW R 1200 GS




TECHNOLOGY & DETAILS.
R 1200 GS – the icon among the travel enduros. For over 32 years it has been defining the segment of travel enduros and setting standards in robustness, reliability, and performance. BMW Motorrad is now continuing the success story – with the new R 1200 GS. But how can we make such an accomplished enduro even better? By refining every single detail without losing sight of the unique character embodied by the R 1200 GS.

The result presents technical revolutions in the typical opposed twin look. The core of the new R 1200 GS is the powertrain concept with liquid cooling and vertical through flow into the cylinder heads. The extremely manoeuvrable and stable suspension is uncompromising when transferring the maximum performance to the road or rough terrain. And thanks to the flexible ergonomics, the rider of the new R 1200 GS can experience every new adventure with ease.

The new R 1200 GS – the perfection of an icon.
