Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW S 1000 R 2025

The BMW S 1000 R remains an uncompromising roadster for sporty, ambitious road riders in 2025. With noticeably more power, improved reponsiveness and finely tuned electronics, it is more agile and versatile than ever. Particularly in the lower and medium speed range, it impresses with its powerful acceleration and high rideability. The combination of well-balanced ergonomics, modern design and sophisticated Advanced Rider Assistance Systems makes it an all-round successful package for sporty everyday use - and at a much more attractive price compared to the M 1000 R. Anyone looking for a powerful naked bike with modern technology and distinct riding pleasure will find the S 1000 R an excellent choice.

BMW S 1000 RR 2010

We have a strict and merciless order from the boss to thank for that. There are tough performance checks before the S 1000 RR leaves the factory. At BMW, they didn't want to show their hand and risk even one disappointing test bench report finding its way into the media.

very fast

optimal price.
