2004 BMW R 1100 S BoxerCup Replica Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in BMW's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2004 BMW R 1100 S BoxerCup Replica pairs a 1085 cc (66.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled two cylinder boxer, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 96.6 HP (70.5 kW) at 7,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 97 Nm (71.5 lb-ft) at 5,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 89 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (5,750 rpm) and peak power (7,250 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the R 1100 S BoxerCup Replica measures 229 kg (505 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.42 HP/kg (2.37 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 860 mm (33.9 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,478 mm (58.2 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.7 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 383 km (238 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 200 km/h (124 mph).
