The M 1000 RR accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.1 seconds and can achieve a maximum speed of 314 km/h.
In terms of design, the motorcycle boasts a lightweight fairing made of intricately crafted carbon-fibre, adorned with M Design tapes. The aluminium bridge frame serves as the chassis, complemented by an upside-down fork and a monoshock with adjustable damping.
The new BMW M 1000 RR is equipped with a 6.5-inch TFT display instrument cluster, offering excellent readability. It includes an M logo start-up animation and an OBD interface for the M GPS datalogger and M GPS lap trigger. Other notable features include a lightweight M battery, rear USB charging socket, powerful LED light units, electronic cruise control, and heated grips.
The motorcycle offers various riding modes, including Rain, Road, Dynamic, Race, and Race Pro 1-3, allowing riders to adapt the control functions according to their riding style.
