The Demo Site

VP of BMW Motorrad USA, told the U.S. moto press invited to Miller by BMW that once the decision to enter the literbike market was made only four years ago, two things were established immediately: price point and using a known quantity, so-to-speak, for the basic architecture.Naturally BMW would put its own twist on the mill, like the use of camshaft finger followers for actuation of the Ti valves; a design borrowed from BMW’s Formula One race car efforts. This was done almost exclusively for the purpose of high revs allowed by the compact, lightweight design according to BMW Motorrad Motorsport superbike team marketing and sponsoring manager, Andreas Ederer (he was prudent to not reveal actual rev limits set on the race S1000RR race bike when pressed by journalists).
