The BMW R1100S, introduced in 1998, was a groundbreaking motorcycle that redefined the sport touring segment. This sleek and powerful machine boasted a unique combination of performance, comfort, and handling, making it a true all-rounder. The heart of the R1100S was its air-cooled, boxer-twin engine, displacing 1,085 cc and delivering a respectable 98 horsepower. While not the most powerful engine in its class, the R1100S's engine was renowned for its smooth power delivery, torquey nature, and reliability. This was further enhanced by the six-speed gearbox and shaft drive, ensuring a smooth and predictable ride. The R1100S also featured a sophisticated suspension system with upside-down forks in the front and a single-sided swingarm in the rear, both with adjustable preload and rebound damping. This setup, coupled with the low-slung chassis and responsive steering, resulted in exceptional handling and maneuverability. This made the R1100S a joy to ride on twisty roads, while still remaining comfortable and stable at higher speeds.

Despite its sporty intentions, the R1100S was also surprisingly practical. It offered a comfortable riding position, with a well-padded seat and adjustable handlebar. The bike was also relatively lightweight, making it easy to handle and maneuver, even in urban environments. Additionally, the R1100S featured a generous fuel tank, allowing for extended journeys without frequent stops. While the R1100S was discontinued in 2006 to make way for the newer R1200S, it continues to be a highly sought-after motorcycle amongst enthusiasts. Its timeless design, combined with its performance and practicality, makes it a classic amongst sport touring motorcycles, making a service repair manual for this bike a valuable resource for any owner looking to maintain their prized machine.
