Laser Engineering once again sets the X-Treme edge in their new GP Dual 70mm
Slip-On system for the 2010-2011 R1000SS.

The BMW S1000RR, if anybody doubted BMW's ambition to break away from their
motorcycle touring heritage and compete head-to-head against the best road-going
sportsbikes the Japanese – or anyone else – can build, there is no doubt now
looking at the BMW S1000RR.
The BMW S1000RR engine – a short-stroke,
wide-bore, high-revving transverse inline four – is relatively conventional,
featuring a few minor innovations and the most advanced engine management seen
on a motorcycle in this class, but no radical new technology. This is because
BMW's engineers looked at all available options, then chose the ones they felt
were the best solution, rather than choosing them for the sake of being
different.
BMW's engine design is compact, light and easy to produce.
Again BMW did not want to be different just to be different. The inline four
engine design has a long and successful history for a reason.
Similarly,
the BMW S1000RR's chassis features the very latest thinking – including
sophisticated and fully integrated optional anti-lock braking and traction
control systems – doesn't stray from the established Japanese set-up of aluminum
beam frame and swingarm, used forks and shock, and four-piston radial
brakes.
Despite the BMW S1000RR's similarity to existing 1000cc
sportsbikes – plus the absence of traditional BMW traits, such as shaft drive
and alternative suspension – BMW are keen to point out th S100RR is very much a
product of the BMW factory.
