BMW M 1000 R 2025

The BMW M 1000 R is an uncompromising performance bike for ambitious riders who want to combine the adrenaline rush of a superbike with the agility of a naked bike. With the high-revving engine from the S 1000 RR, the finest electronics and extensive adjustability, it offers impressive performance on the race track as well as on fast country roads.
