Description
Click here for an VINData Motorcycle History Report on this 2020 BMW S1000RR.
After spending nearly two decades honing its sportbike formula with the R1100RS and the HP2, BMW finally materialized its progress in the form of the S1000RR. It was a release that turned the race replica segment on its head, proving once and for all that the Germans could beat the Japanese at their own game.
When it launched in 2009, the “RR” introduced a number of firsts to the production motorcycle market. In addition to an optional quick shifter, it also featured ABS, dynamic traction control, and a customizable four-mode riding system. What’s more, it boasted the largest bore and stroke of any liter bike at the time — a potent 80mm x 49.7mm. On the road, this meant that the 999cc transverse four-banger made some 193hp and 82.6lb-ft of torque, enabling a top speed of 186mph and a 0-60mph sprint of 3.1 seconds.
Since that time, BMW has only continued to improve on its original effort, refining the concept with slippery aero, a strengthened frame, some reworked suspension, and a set of stronger brakes. With the ultra-exclusive HP4 version of the S1000RR, BMW even added a ride-by-wire steering system — an innovation that had previously only appeared on track bikes.
The fourth generation S1000RR arrived in 2018, and was — by far — the most powerful, most performance-oriented version of the model yet. The water- and oil-cooled engine put down 204hp and 83lb-ft of torque, and the combination of hollow-bored titanium valves and BMW ShiftCam technology allowed it to rev all the way to 14,600rpm.
This example is VIN: WB10E2304LZJ28358. The seller is the original owner and purchased the bike new from from Cross Country Cycle in Metuchen, New Jersey, and states, “I fell in love with the design and technology on this bike when it was announced and put down a deposit immediately. I put the break in mileage on it within the first month and then found out that the full power of the bike is much more than I want or need on the street and I ended up not riding it as much as I thought I would.”
The odometer shows 2,030 miles.
