BMW S 1000 RR (2012-2013) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2013, BMW released the S 1000 RR, which didn’t receive as many updates as the 2012 model, but BMW introduced the HP4 variant, which was a more track-oriented version of the S 1000 RR. The HP4 featured a Dynamic Damper Control (DDC) that was making changes to the suspension every 11 milliseconds, responding to a bunch of sensors and throttle input that is adjustable on the go, being a first on any production motorcycle. A great option on the HP4 variant was the combined braking that in every riding mode except Slick, the rear brake was engaged automatically when the front brake was applied.

The 2013 BMW S 1000 RR gets its power from the 999cc four-stroke liquid-cooled engine, tightly bound to a six-speed manual gearbox, with an output of 193 hp at 13,000 rpm and 113 Nm (83 lb-ft) of torque at 9,750 rpm.

For suspension, the model has a 46 mm USD fork on the front, a double swingarm with a central spring strut in the spring base, and adjustable inbound and rebound action.

In the braking department, the S 1000 RR has two 320 mm discs with four-piston fixed calipers on the front and a 220 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear.

The 2013 BMW S 1000 RR was for sale in 2022, starting from $11,000.
