BMW R 1100 S - 2002 Specifications and Reviews
The 2002 BMW R 1100 S is a sport-touring boxer that appeals to riders seeking versatility without sacrificing performance. Known for its responsive handling, comfortable ergonomics, and classic air-cooled twin-cylinder character, it excels at blending everyday practicality with spirited road riding. The shaft drive and substantial suspension travel make it equally capable on long tours and technical backroads.
About the BMW R 1100 S
Powered by an air and oil cooled 1,085.00cc Boxer flat twin cylinder four stroke engine, producing 98bhp.
The engine is derived from the R1100RS although the compression ratio has been tweaked along with changes to the air intake and forged connecting rods to increase the top speed and power.
Power is delivered to the rear wheel via shaft drive and the engine is a stressed member of the frame, just like the R1100RS
