If straight-line speed is your priority, the M1000RR takes the lead. With 15 HP more than the R1, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the M1000RR has a clear advantage. Weighing in 8kg less than the R1, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Riders with a shorter inseam should lean towards the M1000RR. Its seat height is 23mm lower than the R1, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the m1000rr offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
