BMW S 1000 RR: A Superbike of Superlatives

Few motorcycles capture the essence of performance and precision like the BMW S 1000 RR. It's not just a machine—it's a statement. Whether you're tearing up the racetrack or cruising on the open road, the S 1000 RR is engineered for those who demand the highest standards from themselves and their superbike.

#NeverStopChallenging: Pushing Boundaries

The BMW S 1000 RR is more focused than ever, evolving to meet the needs of riders who constantly push their limits. Every lap, every turn, every second counts—and the RR delivers more of what you need. More speed, more precision, and more control, all while providing an exhilarating riding experience. Leading the way in the world of superbikes is measured in millimeters, and the S 1000 RR ensures you stay ahead with cutting-edge technology like the new steering angle sensor with Brake Slide Assist and Slide Control.

Highlights of a Superbike

The S 1000 RR is packed with performance-oriented features:

  • Outstanding Braking: Precision braking power, enhancing control at high speeds.
  • M Carbon Tail-Hump Cover: Includes a camera adapter, designed for those who want to capture their ride.
  • New Rear End: Featuring a short license plate carrier for a sleek, race-inspired look.
  • Optimized Engine Concept: Powered by a water/oil-cooled four-cylinder engine that delivers 205 hp at 13,000 rpm.
  • Dynamic Front View and Windscreen: A tall windscreen that enhances aerodynamics while giving the RR a striking front profile.
  • M Data Logger with GPS-Laptrigger: Collect data like a pro, using the M performance-oriented data logger.
  • Efficient Front and Side Trim Panel with Winglet: Aerodynamics refined, generating up to 37.7 lbs of downforce at 186 mph.

A Bike That Lives for the Track

The BMW S 1000 RR isn't just a bike you bring to the racetrack—it's a bike that belongs on the racetrack. With composite plastic winglets designed to keep the front wheel grounded during intense acceleration, the RR ensures power is converted into speed with minimal interference. The 6-stage DTC traction control and new steering angle sensor allow for smooth cornering and incredible control. With features like Brake Slide Assist, riders can handle dynamic slides and power through every turn.

The Power to Dominate

The heart of the S 1000 RR is its high-performance BMW ShiftCam engine, delivering 205 hp with a water/oil-cooled four-stroke in-line system. Its optimized engine components, including the airbox and cylinder heads from the M RR, help maximize power and precision. The new rear sprocket, now with 46 teeth instead of 45, ensures every ounce of power is translated into performance on the straight.

Tailored for the Rider

The BMW S 1000 RR can be customized to suit your style and performance needs. From the M Package, Dynamics Package, and Race Package, to the Carbon Package with lightweight CFRP components, there's a setup for every rider. For those seeking even more control, the M chassis kit allows for adjustable swing arm pivots and a raised rear end to enhance feedback and precision.

Performance You Can See

With the updated TFT screen and Core Screen Memory, you'll stay locked into your performance. The system retains the last displayed screen when restarting, helping you stay focused on your mode. From the tachometer’s flashing gearshift indicator to the cold engine speed limit display, everything is designed to keep you in the zone.

Colors That Make a Statement

Choose from three striking colors: Light White/M Motorsport, Racing Red, and Black Storm Metallic. Each variant captures the essence of the RR's aggressive, race-ready character, but the iconic Light White/M Motorsport scheme paired with the M Package truly leaves no doubt about where this bike belongs—on the racetrack.

An Unstoppable Legacy

The BMW S 1000 RR doesn’t just push boundaries—it obliterates them. Whether it’s the 3.1 seconds it takes to go from 0-62 mph, or the effortless way it carves through every corner, this bike is built to dominate. And with BMW’s 3-year/36,000 mile warranty, you can keep challenging yourself, knowing your ride is ready for the journey ahead.
