Zitat von Tony101 im Beitrag #2 As Tony says, some countries had or have a 100 hp limit by law or agreement between manufacturers (like the 250 kph speed limit on German cars). Nothing to do with settings on a "normal" RS, even in Rain mode you still have the full 125 hp! |

Zitat von juergen im Beitrag #6 original equipment - either fitted to the bike as part of the manufacture or a replacement part of identical specification an OE oil filter would be a BMW branded one as used in the factory rather than a pattern part made by K&N or Mahle in the above table, specifically, the OE would be a low power kit fitted in the factory - to meet the requirement of a restricted licence or country specific limit like the French had for a while |

In the case of Belgium, having the bike registered under 107hp (or 72kw) gets it a lower tier for the tax to get it on the road; around 80€ if I remember well. If it’s over 110hp you get in a higher tier and must pay something like 600€ just to register the bike. Then add the yearly tax for having a vehicule using the road; 65€ for a motorcycle. |

Zitat von CptMoustache im Beitrag #10 ...and therefore they are using more gasoline and tearing up the roads with all that power. Therefore, they shouldn't complain about the high tax...?  “A good man always knows his limitations.” |

I think you may find it is the power reduction when DTC is switched on.
