The BMW M 1000 RR
For all those driven by their passion and ready to take on challenges. For all those who refuse to give up one single millimetre or millisecond: The BMW M RR is the superbike homologated for racing. It was perfected in the wind tunnel and further developed on the circuit. It has optimised aerodynamics and uses carbon, resulting in a significantly higher top speed of 314 km/h. Its engine and chassis remain as powerful and direct as ever. The M RR stands for absolute performance and exclusivity down to the last detail. Just the typical M.
Even here there is an upgrade: our BMW Motorrad Motorsport Race Support – simply: #NeverStopChallenging.
An interplay of highlights
Ride like you’re in a slipstream

The optimised front and side trim panels are made of carbon to ensure greater performance and increase the top speed by 8 km/h. In addition, the new aerodynamics relieve strain on the rider by reducing the downforce of the wind: for sustained, fast, focused riding. The newly designed M winglets made of carbon, on the other hand, increase the downforce of the front wheel by up to 6.3 kg – even when leaning. And they provide 22.6 kg of downforce at 300 km/h, giving riders more confidence during extreme tilts and at high cornering speeds.

The M brake ducts and optional M Aero wheel covers were created in collaboration with BMW Motorsport experts. The M brake ducts are directly integrated into the new front-wheel mudguards, which in turn have been optimised for improved airflow around the fork legs and brake calipers. Their first time in use on a series motorcycle, the M brake ducts reduce the temperature of the brake calipers. The M Aero wheel covers, also made of visible carbon, reduce turbulence at the front wheel and unleash your bike’s full potential on long straights at speeds greater than 250 km/h.
When every millimetre counts – including in the engine
The M RR power train has a maximum rotational speed of 15,100 rpm and has proven itself in the WSBK. A level of performance where every millimetre counts: A few highlights: fully CNC machined intake ports, lightweight 2-ring forged pistons with piston rings optimised for significantly reduced oil consumption, narrow and lightweight rocker arms, titanium valves, optimised camshafts, and a Pankl titanium connecting rod that is 340 g lighter than the S 1000 RR and delivers reduced friction. In addition, BMW ShiftCam technology for varying valve timing and valve lift as well as an intake system with shorter intake funnels delivering an optimised charge cycle at high engine speeds. To start you off right for victory, its anti-hopping clutch works without self-reinforcement.
Clear feedback – not just from the pit lane
The best possible feel for the front and rear wheels and breathtaking, pinpoint accuracy: The heart of the chassis is an aluminium bridge frame, which also includes an upside-down fork and a central spring strut with Full Floater Pro kinematics, meaning even greater chassis performance. Consistently and uncompromisingly geared to achieve the best race times, its chassis also impresses those perfectionists taking to the road in search of adrenaline.
High performance – also a question of tuning
What sets a true winner apart is their ability to apply their potential during those critical milliseconds: The M RR Launch Control gives you the perfect start to the race, and the Pit Lane Limiter knows when to control the power. The shift assistant Pro helps you shift gears fast, without actuating the clutch for every gear change. The gearshift diagram can then be simply reversed for racing. In addition, a total of 7 riding modes, two adjustable throttle characteristics, and three setting options for the engine drag torque help you adapt your ride to the track perfectly. The 6.5" TFT display makes everything easy to read.
Uncompromising acceleration – but the other way
After one year of use in the WorldSBK and on the racetracks of the world, the following still applies to the M brake: Best in class. Actually, even better. This is because the newly developed M brake ducts cool the brake calipers by up to 10 degrees while racing – depending on the racetrack – for even higher performance and a more constant resistance point. The perfectly coordinated operating element and saddle continues to mean maximum brake stability, clear feedback, and the best adjustment to Race ABS. The M brake is and remains the best reference.
The look of a winner
Two versions, one goal: pure performance
The M RR is available in two versions: A basic variant, and an M RR with M Competition package. Each M RR is designed with one clear specification: victory. And that is exactly what both variants stand for, with absolute dedication and motivation.
Linear guiding – literally
The front has been aerodynamically optimised and features a visible carbon fairing and M design tape, showing a will to win down to the last detail. Even the newly designed fairing support is made of carbon. And its newly designed rear makes the M RR even more dynamic. Its number plate carrier with integrated light has also been made even more compact. Thanks to a new wiring harness and the steering angle sensor on the rear turn indicators, the M RR is now ready for the racetrack even quicker. Its front turn indicator switches have also been optimised accordingly.
Even more racing
The M Competition package
The M Competition package
Racing meets aesthetics: the M Competition package includes the M GPS lap trigger and related activation code, the M Aero wheel covers, an anodised rear wheel swinging arm that is 220 g lighter, and the maintenance-free, DLC-coated M Endurance chain. Also available: M Carbon package with high-quality visible carbon and clear coat components, M Billet pack with new 150 g lighter M footrest, and Carbon passenger seat cover or Passenger package.

Extensive special equipment options and Original BMW Motorrad accessories allow you to further refine your M RR, precisely tailoring it to the requirements of your ride or route. Thus, the M Carbon tail-hump cover can be used to hold your GPS mouse or action camera. A 6-way adjustable M footrest system is also included with the M Competition package, helping you achieve true racing style. Just like the M Endurance single seat bench, which lets you hit deep inclines while maintaining more control.
