Military Safety Program

 

BMW Motorrad USA has continued this promotion to help America's servicemen and women ride more safely.  Active-duty military personnel who purchase a new BMW S 1000 RR will receive a free safety package, including Race ABS and Dynamic Traction Control worth $1,480 from BMW Motorrad USA.

 

To show our gratitude and appreciation to our men and women in uniform for their service to our country BMW now offers them our safety package on the S 1000 RR for free. The result will be safer riders, fewer accidents and greater protection against harm to those who protect us.
