Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

BMW S 1000 RR 2017

On request with complete electronic equipment. All features available in high quality

Strong engine - powerful and easy to control

Comfortable seating position even for taller riders

Good chassis on the road and at trackdays

Brake fade on the racetrack under high load

Ride quality high enough for trackdays but not good enough for racing

Looks greyed out even though it is technically up to date
