SPECTACULAR ARTISTY ON THE NEW BMW F 800 S
Stunt world champion Christian Pfeiffer rides the new 2-cylinder model.
The former stunt world champion Christian Pfeiffer presents his breathtaking
motorcycling tricks on the new BMW F 800 S this year. Even in test rides with
prototypes last year, Chris Pfeiffer was instantly taken with the playful
agility and perfect engine characteristics of the brand new BMW 2-cylinder.
BMW Motorrad was happy to oblige when Pfeiffer requested an F 800 as his new
"working tool" at the very start of the freestyle season and well
before the start of delivery to customers. Christian Pfeiffer was provided
with a pre-series model which he modified accordingly.
The new motorcycle came through its baptism of fire in February at the "Stunt Wars" in sunny Florida with flying colours. "Stunt Wars" is the biggest freestyle motorcycle competition in the US and is regarded by pros as the unofficial world championship. 35-year-old Pfeiffer won hands down against the best stunt professionals in the world, with free-hand wheelie circles followed by a 230° turn for example - a feat never seen before. The modified F 800 S was the only 2-cylinder machine in the field - most of the competition used 4-cylinder bikes.
Pfeiffer was particularly enthusiastic about the F 800's engine characteristics: "The engine is really well connected to the throttle and the power is transmitted spontaneously and sensitively - much better than in my last motorcycle with chain drive. That is exactly what I have always wanted for my stunts - absolutely perfect. From the very beginning I felt good on this bike, the balance is great - I hardly had to do anything to it, almost everything stayed as standard."
Christian Pfeiffer will perform all his stunt appearances in 2006 on the BMW F 800 S. In mid-February, spectators were captivated by his amazing first appearance of 2006 in Europe at the motorcycle trade fair in Zurich where he performed breathtaking tricks on the motorcycle
