M perfection: winglets

Perfection is in the details. The refined black winglets generate aerodynamic downforce, and at 220 km/h, they increase the front-wheel load by 11 kg.

Your benefit: maximum riding stability and a lower tendency for the front wheel to lift off the road surface, letting you brake later and accelerate earlier when cornering. If you prefer more exclusive M 1000 R equipment, you can select the M winglets in Carbon from the optional M Competition package.

M experience: electronics

The fully fledged M experience the 6.5-inch TFT display, it welcomes you to the exclusive circle of high-performance riders with its M start-up animation. On this BMW motorsport bike, one of four screen variants appears automatically after startup, thanks to the memory function. The Race Pro modes are optimised specially for pushing limits on the racetrack.

M intelligence: assistants

Rather than doping, achieve high levels of performance thanks to high-end assistants. This BMW sport motorbike has five accelerator characteristics, such as the Rain, Road, Dynamic, Race and Race Pro riding modes, delivering an optimum response in any condition . DTC ensures maximum safety and dynamic riding tailored to each mode, while the Brake Slide Assist helps you control braking drifts when cornering.
