M 1000 R
Superbike meets dynamic Roadster. Made for the streets, and for the racetrack with M genetics.
A throaty 210 hp with a top speed of 280 km/h, all under your control. The Splitface LED headlight shows you the way to the top. #NeverStopChallenging
M perfection: winglets
Perfection is in the details. M winglets generate aerodynamic downforce to prevent high flyers from taking off. At a speed of 220 km/h, they increase the front-wheel load by 11 kg. Your benefit: maximum riding stability, a lower tendency for the front wheel to lift off the road surface as well as the possibility to brake later and accelerate earlier when cornering. If you prefer more exclusive equipment, you can select the M winglets in Carbon from the optional M Competition package.
M experience: electronics
Fully fledged M experience: the 6.5-inch TFT display welcomes you to the exclusive circle of high-performance riders with M start-up animation. One of four screen variants appears automatically after having started up thanks to the memory function. The Race Pro modes are optimised for riding at the limit on the racetrack.
M dominance: engine
Superbike engine perfected for a hyper roadster: the four-cylinder engine from the RR with BMW ShiftCam technology catapults you from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds. With a maximum engine speed of 14,600 rpm, the M R is clearly our most powerful roadster. From 10,000 rpm, you can consequently feel more torque and acceleration. In terms of gear ratio, the M R has more to offer compared with the RR: 47 instead of 46 teeth in the secondary gear ratio and a shorter gear ratio in 4th, 5th and 6th gears compared to the S 1000 R – for performance-oriented riding on country roads. Shift assistant Pro enables fast upshifts and downshifts. The bike's rich sound originating from the titanium rear silencer impressively emphasises this.
M statement: design
Dominant front, compact rear with frame and rear wheel swinging arm in exclusive Platinum grey: M R at its best. Take your seat on the M seat and reach for the tubular handlebar with lasered “BMW M 1000 R” lettering. Sound on, light on: The dual-flow LED headlight puts a beaming smile on the cheeky Splitface. On your face, too. Because you know: the track belongs to you.
