2015 Bmw S1000 Premium package fully loaded!
As with the HP4, Slick and User also allow DTC sensitivity to be altered on the fly, with 7 +/- steps of adjustment controlled by a rocker switch on the left bar. There’s an easy-to-read status displayed on the LCD dash, which has been revamped with a wealth of new information that even includes a gimmicky bank-angle readout. While the DDC suspension adjusts dynamically to changing conditions, it’s calibrated differently in each ride mode—it’s softest in rain, firmest in Slick. It also employs an adjustment interface with 7 +/- steps for fork damping (both compression and rebound) along with discrete compression and rebound shock adjustability for further fine tuning. After briefly sampling Road and Sport modes, I spent much of my time in Slick and User, primarily playing with different DTC levels. The afternoon also saw a change from the standard fitment Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP to Pirelli race slicks. The sticky tires delivered an even greater confidence in front-end feel and grip, with only an occasional flash from the DTC light on the dash once I ventured into a negative sensitivity setting. Subtle controlled rear drifts on corner exits and floating power wheelies onto the track’s main straight were now the norm. |
