- DDC: Dynamic Damping Control openly from the BMW HP4. Here the deferment acclimatizes by electronic means within milliseconds on the road in variety of situations and surfaces.
- Uniqueness and damping properties alter from “satisfying” to “tense” which depends on riding modes chosen, riding situation and road surface. The suspension helps the rider without the later having to craft any perfunctory adjustments to the damper firmness and recoiling stage.
Engine:
The BMW S1000R 2014 is motorized by the renowned presentation with the 4-cylinder in-line engine from the BMW S1000RR. But this time it is seen that it has been maximized for use in the roadster.

Most press commenced—in particular for the naked sport bikes—open with several heavy-metal emphasized video for the promotion of the bike’s ability for cleaving wheelies and sinking rubber to flutter clouds of thrilling smoke.
The press launch for the BMW S1000R 2014 was amazingly special. This conference began silently, with a presentation by Alexander Buckan, Design Manager for BMW Motored.
In the presentation Buckan talked about what are three levels of motorcycle design for him like—proportion, mission, and mindset—and how these observations are all uttered by what a rider anticipated from any bike provided to him.
A endure rider desires to experience in control, for example; a police car rider desires to feel stress-free and comfortable. These characteristics are commune, of course by the look of the bike, but even more by its riding position.
