Senior Road Tester Michael Neeves will trip the brand new gadget, that's a naked model of the German firm's fireplace-breathing, race-prepared S1000RR. It has the same 999cc inline four-cylinder engine, however electricity is trimmed to 160hp @ eleven,000rpm and 83ftlb @ 9250rpm to make it extra achievable for the road.
Sharing the RR's chassis, the steerage geometry is slightly lazier and the wheelbase longer, for additonal stability, consolation and traction. Kerb weight is 207kg.
Two driving modes, Racing ABS and stability manage come as widespread, but a 'Riding mode Pro' option is to be had, which includes two extra riding modes, traction manipulate and a lean attitude sensor.
46mm forks are adjustable for rebound and compression damping and the rear shock is absolutely adjustable, but there is a semi-energetic suspension Dynamic Damping Control (DDC) choice, first visible at the HP4.
Radial Brembos are the same as the RR's, but the devices, styling and using role new, with a 16mm lower seat.
Optional add-ons include the whole thing from heated grips and cruise manipulate, to a full titanium Akrapovic exhaust and an HP datalogger.
