Munich. Power, emotion, sheer adrenalin. BMW Motorrad and the blockbuster action movie series Dhoom have one thing in common: a passion for fast and powerful bikes. In Dhoom:3 – the third instalment of the Bollywood blockbuster due for international release on 20 December – BMW Motorrad and Yash Raj Films unveil their debut collaboration in the form of an exclusive motorcycle partnership. The upshot is edge-of-the-seat footage depicting breakneck biking stunts with the high-performance BMW S 1000 RR and BMW K 1300 R models. While these promise serious goosebumps, the action-packed overtaking and evasive manoeuvres along with daring leaps and high-speed rides demonstrate the lightness of touch with which extreme power can be harnessed.
For 90 years now, BMW Motorrad has been a byword for style-setting innovations, outstanding engineering skills and a distinctive design that is consistently targeted at the emotional dimension of biking. “For BMW Motorrad, the focus is always on the rider’s experience. That is why we are incredibly proud to be making our debut not just in an Indian film venture but in the biggest Bollywood blockbuster of the year – and with our BMW bikes playing such a high-profile role,” says Alexander Baraka, Head of Events, Exhibitions and Motorsport Marketing. “This is a project predestined for high-speed chases on the big screen.”
Acceleration even at standstill: the BMW K 1300
R.
As one of the most powerful models in its segment,
the flamboyant high-performance BMW K 1300 R roadster meets the most
exacting demands in terms of riding dynamics. Its muscular front end
and slim, sporty rear hold out a promise that is fulfilled the moment
you set off on this naked bike: the BMW K 1300 R launches into a
rocket start while also boasting safe and stable roadholding through corners.
Superbike without compromise: the BMW S 1000
RR.
Ease of handling coupled with extreme ride
stability, supreme engine performance allied to perfect everyday
utility: thanks to its sporting DNA, the BMW S 1000 RR turns the road
into a race track. With its aluminium frame, radical braking system
and dynamic tail-up, nose-down design, this bike exemplifies undiluted
racing power.
