Some naughty person somewhere has snapped and uploaded a couple of photos from a brochure and uploaded them to that thing they call the internet. After the designs were leaked in a patent application last month, we can now glean a few more crucial details about the 2019 S1000RR…
- 207 HP at 13,500 RPM
- 197 KG
- 113 NM @ 11,000 RPM (81.9 lb-ft)
- ShiftCam system (as seen in the new R1250GS)
- Bi-directional gear shifter (blipper + quick shifter)
