THE BMW S 1000 RR
Always pushing to the limit and in search of the racing line, you've got 152 kW (207 hp) underneath you. Unbridled power pushes your RR to the max – with a maximum torque of 113 Nm at 11,000 rpm and a torque curve of at least 100 Nm over an engine speed range of 5,500 to 14,500 rpm. Ten years after the first generation of the RR first mesmerised the world of motorcycles, we're now entering the next level of performance. We have revised almost every component of the RR – from the front to the rear. The result: less weight and noticeably higher performance. Are you ready for pole position – are you ready for #NeverStopChallenging? The RR awaits you.

Designed for the pole position.
Anyone who looks at it becomes immediately aware: Here stands a high performance motorcycle. Every part of the RR has been designed to get the most out of it. Take, for instance, the frame layout with its new suspension technology that makes the RR lighter and more precise. In addition, there is the ergonomically perfect seating position, which is unrivalled thanks to the modified frame and fairing design. The standard LED headlights give the bike an absolutely dynamic and aggressive look. The front indicators have wandered from the fairing to the rearview mirrors, which not only looks aesthetically pleasing, but it also provides improved visibility. Seen from the rear, the RR dominates in terms of design and functionality: "All-in-one" is the motto here. In addition to number plate lighting, the number plate holder now also includes LED turn signals, tail lights and brake lights.
Ready for the circuit.
When it comes to top performance, the RR is your perfect partner. And not just on the road, but also on the circuit. In a few simple steps, you can dismantle both the rearview mirror and the number plate holder and you've got a racing bike.
The optionally available M Package turns your RR into the ultimate racing machine. Here the weight is once more reduced by around 3.5 kg down to a mere 193.5 kg. In addition to the tricolour paintwork of Light White/Racing Blue metallic/Racing Red, the M carbon compound wheels, the M lightweight battery, theM sport seat, the M chassis kit (tail riser and swingarm pivot), you get the Pro riding mode with configurable modes of Race Pro 1–3 and electronic assistance systems, such as DTC +/- shifter, ABS settings, engine remapping, wheelie and slide control, and much more.
4-CYLINDER IN-LINE ENGINE
Four cylinders and unrivalled performance.
Four cylinders and unrivalled performance.
The newly designed, four-cylinder engine is the new RR power train. Not only was the peak output increased to 152 kW (207 HP) at 13,500 rpm, but the torque curve was also optimized. And thanks to the new BMW ShiftCam technology, which selects the valve opening time and the valve lift by means of camshaft, even in low and medium engine speed ranges significantly more torque and power is applied.
In addition, numerous other components were adapted to further optimize weight, space and design. These include a new timing concept, hollow-drilled titanium intake valves and an improved and self-reinforcing multi-disc, anti-hopping wet clutch (-20N). The engine is now 4 kg lighter and narrower, which improves both the handling and the ergonomics. You will notice this immediately when you first get on.

THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE RR
An overview of the technical highlights.
Already when you first accelerate you notice immediately: this bike's excellent torque curve is captivating even at low and middle speeds. This is mainly thanks to the BMW ShiftCam technology. Here the intake valves are controlled as needed by means of a control camshaft. Depending on the speed, the valve opening time and valve lift are adjusted to ensure the best performance for you and your RR.
The RR has ABS and ABS Pro, depending on your riding mode: RAIN, ROAD, DYNAMIC, RACE or RACE Pro-1 to 3. So you decide whether your bike needs the maximum stability or the highest possible performance.
On the road or on the circuit: This feature is a must. Because with the standard feature Shift Assistant Pro with blipper function you switch gears without pressing the clutch up and down. So you can fully concentrate on the road. At the same time, the load-bearing influences on the body and rear wheel have been reduced to a minimum. The result: You're faster, more stable and can enjoy even higher performance and more riding pleasure.
The RR comes optionally equipped with the next generation DDC. Now the electronic valve is parallel to the mechanical valve. If necessary, the damping is reduced or increased in 10 ms via this bypass line. For the motorway or the circuit, you can always rely on perfect damping. The suspension spring can also be adjusted manually.
The standard LED headlights give the RR its new unmistakable sporty-aggressive look. This applies not only to the front headlights, which have been moved from the trimming to the rearview mirror in the new RR, but also for the tail, where the turn signal, brake and tail light are combined in one component.
The benchmark in the superbike segment: the TFT display of the RR. With 6.5" you have the perfect overview. You can choose between the Pure Ride screen that's reduced to the essentials or one of three Core Ride screens that display other important information. Everything under control with the multi-controller: Simply scroll through the menu of your 6.5" TFT display and access the various functions and settings - without taking your hands off the handlebar. So you stay in full control of it all.
Not only is the new RR a lot lighter at a mere 197 kg, it's also got the perfect ergonomics. The frame, tank, seat, tail and footpegs have all been modified for more support, freedom of movement, more feedback and better knee closure.
The interplay of the over-milled footpegs and the new handlebar ergonomics with the M seat, in addition to even more feedback, offers you a tireless ride and lets you ride longer and concentrate on achieving faster lap times.
The new RR is equipped with an aluminium swing arm and offers you better power distribution and less reaction from the chassis when accelerating like in motorsports. That saves the tyres. The standard shock absorber of the new RR is now further away from the engine and is therefore less exposed to heat. In addition, a larger damper piston was installed. This results in a constant degree of damping in all riding situations.
With the standard seat, you will notice the following immediately: This system was designed with perfect feedback in mind. This allows not only more freedom of movement, but also the perfect amount of contact with the motorcycle while riding. The standard seat height is 824 mm and the step arch is 1,829 mm.
In addition to the standard seat, there's also the optional M sport seat for the new RR. Its slip-resistant cover and harder foam save power when accelerating or braking hard, and bring more stability to the bike. The M sport seat is part of the M Package. It is available in three seat heights (814 mm, 824 mm and 849 mm) as a special accessory.
It's so fast to convert your RR from a cruising bike to a racing machine: the tail light integrated into the LED turn signals and the number plate light are both attached to the number plate holder unit. The big advantage here is that in just a few simple steps you can remove the number plate holder and lighting and be ready for the circuit in best time.
Four riding modes are standard with the RR: RAIN, ROAD, DYNAMIC and RACE. All four are perfectly tailored to the respective conditions and provide more performance or more stability and safety, as desired. Racers, in particular, get their money's worth with the special accessory Pro riding mode. The included RACE Pro 1, RACE Pro 2 and RACE Pro 3 modes can be individually adapted to Engine (throttle), Engine Brake, Traction Control (DTC), Wheelie-Control (DTC), ABS and ABS Pro - so that you can achieve the best possible performance on every circuit. You also have access to extra features such as Launch Control, Pit Lane Limiter, Hill Start Control Pro (HSC Pro), and Dynamic Brake Control (DBC). Additional special driving assistance system: the electronic Dynamic Damping Control (DDC). The maximum damping can be reduced as needed in 10 ms using a parallel bypass valve controlled by the DDC. This means maximum performance at all times thanks to the road contact, thus giving you race-like ride precision due to the optimal, crystal-clear feedback.
Technology made for maximum performance in every situation.
The RR is a technical high-flyer with road grip: The four standard modes RAIN, ROAD, DYNAMIC and RACE already cover numerous riding styles in a variety of conditions. Pro mode as a special accessory lays the racing world at your feet with the three additional modes RACE Pro 1, RACE Pro 2 and RACE Pro 3, with Launch Control, Pitlane Limiter, HSC Pro (Hill Start Control Pro) and DBC (Dynamic Brake Control). With the multi-controller you can configure the following settings via the full-colour 6.5" TFT display: the throttle response incl. engine characteristics, the engine braking torque, the traction control (DTC) incl. wheelie control, ABS and DDC (Dynamic Damping Control). And with the push of a button you can adjust the settings while riding via DTC +/- Shift. Thanks to the latest 6-axis sensor technology and torque precontrol, DTC support is particularly smooth and powerful. The procedure takes place no matter the gear, speed and inclination.
With the next-generation DTC, you get more efficient, powerful and safer traction control and thus even more forward momentum.
More stability and better force application.
More stability and better force application.
The new RR has, as the only street-legal standard superbike, an aluminium undercarriage, which had previously only been used on the racing scene. The 0.3 kg less weight significantly reduces the unsprung mass and results in significantly less reaction from the chassis when accelerating. In addition, the shock absorber, which can be adjusted in terms of tension and rebound as well as the suspension, is installed farther away from the engine and is thus less exposed to heat. This has significant advantages for the shock absorber. By changing the strut ratio from 1.9:1 to 1.65:1 and having a larger damper piston, a smaller spring rate was able to be selected. This friction minimization increases comfort and performance since the power build-up in the strut occurs quickly and accurately. The entire system is thus much gentler on the tires.
Perfect damping on all routes.

With the special accessory Dynamic Damping Control (DDC), the control philosophy of the electronic chassis as well as the mechanical damping component were newly developed. Regardless of whether you're on a country road or the circuit - the electronic valve always provides the maximum damping, depending on the riding mode and purpose. It is now parallel to the mechanical valve. If necessary, the damping is reduced or increased in 10 ms via this bypass line. The newly anodized floating piston rod is extremely sensitive. If required, the Shim Package can also be adapted by chassis specialists.
Damping on the fork is regulated here globally and in traction and compression stages. The tension and compression stages are individually controlled in the fork by means of the linear position sensor. The suspension can be manually adjusted as needed.
