Chris Pfeiffer will be making his first appearances in the UK this summer,
wowing crowds on his BMW F 800 S machine.

The 37-year-old German stunt-rider is the current Indoor Freestyle World
Champion and was the 2006 Stunt Wars winner in Florida USA. Chris will be
giving sensational displays of his trick riding skills at the Day of Champions
at Donington Park on Thursday 21 June, and the Goodwood Festival of Speed in
Hampshire from Friday 22 to Sunday 24 June.

The Day of Champions is the annual fund-raiser for the Riders for Health
charity, which trains African health workers to ride and maintain motorcycles
so they can reach remote rural communities with vital healthcare. The Goodwood
Festival of Speed is a hillclimb event which is quite possibly the biggest and
most diverse celebration of two and four-wheeled motorsport in the world, both
perfect venues for Chris to perform his spectacular show.

As well as countless world and European titles, 'CP' as he's known, is also a
world record holder having achieved a 115-degree overhanging wheelie, 15
wheelie circles in just thirty seconds and a bunny-hop over 33 people!

Chris discovered his passion for bikes at a young age, getting his first
motorcycle at the age of five. With off-road and trials as his first love, CP
won a number of German youth trial titles. Since 2000 he's been concentrating
solely on performing freestyle stunts on large-capacity streetbikes.

His skills on his F 800 S machine show both the technical excellence and
bullet-proof reliability of BMW's latest range of motorcycles.

CO2 emission information.

The values for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and energy consumption shown were determined in a standardised test cycle according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the version currently applicable. The figures refer to a vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown considers transmission (automatic or manual) and the different wheels and tyres available on the selected model and may vary during the configuration.

The values of the vehicles labelled with (*), are already based on the test cycle according to the new WLTP regulation and are translated back into NEDC-equivalent values in order to allow a comparison between vehicles. More information on the transition from NEDC to WLTP test procedures can be found here.

These figures are intended for comparison purposes and may not be representative of what a user achieves under usual driving conditions. For plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles the figures have been obtained using a combination of battery power and petrol fuel after the battery had been fully charged. Plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles require mains electricity for charging. The CO2 emissions labels are determined according to Directive 1999/94/EC and the Passenger Car (Fuel consumption and CO2 Emissions Information) Regulations 2001, as amended. They are based on the fuel consumption, CO2 values and energy consumptions according to the NEDC cycle.

A guide on fuel economy and CO2 emissions which contains data for all new passenger car models is available at any point of sale free of charge. For further information you can also visit this link.
