BMW M 1000 RR launched

The hot new BMW M 1000 RR has just hit the Indian market with a bang. And guess what? You can reserve one for yourself right now, with deliveries starting in November. But brace yourselves, because this beast comes with a price tag of Rs. 49 lakh (ex-showroom). Yeah, it’s definitely on the pricey side, but hey, you’ll be rolling in style!

Now, let’s break it down for you. The 2023 BMW M 1000 RR comes in two versions. The base variant will cost you Rs. 49 lakh, while the top-of-the-line Competition variant will set you back an extra Rs. 6 lakh, with a price of Rs. 55 lakh. Both variants are ex-showroom, of course. This bad boy is the most expensive bike from BMW Motorrad in India, and it’s being imported as a completely built-up unit. Fancy, right?

So, what’s under the hood? The BMW M 1000 RR packs a punch with its 999cc, four-cylinder, water, and oil-cooled engine. Thanks to BMW’s ShiftCam technology, this baby churns out a whopping 210bhp of power at 14,500rpm and 113Nm of torque at 11,000rpm. It’s paired with a slick six-speed gearbox, complete with a slip-and-assist clutch and a bi-directional quickshifter. This beast can reach a top speed of 314km/h and can go from 0 to 100km/h in just 3.1 seconds. Hold on tight!

Now, let’s talk looks. The 2019 BMW M 1000 RR’s got a sleek rear design, complete with a sporty number plate holder and a comfortable M Endurance seat. The fairing is made of exposed carbon fibre, giving it a cool and aerodynamic vibe. Oh, and the winglets have been upgraded to provide more downforce, making the bike more stable and less prone to wheelies. Plus, the M brakes are a sight to behold with their blue anodized finish and the iconic M logo.

The BMW M 1000 RR comes packed with features too. You’ve got a 6.5-inch TFT display with a cool M-start animation, a handy USB charging port, integrated LED lights, and even heated grips. Safety-wise, it’s got dynamic traction control (DTC) and different racing modes like Rain, Road, Dynamic, Race, and three Race Pro modes. Talk about customization!

When it comes to hardware, the M 1000 RR doesn’t disappoint. The front forks and rear monoshock are fully adjustable, so you can fine-tune your ride to perfection. The braking system includes two 320mm front discs and one 220mm rear disc with dual-channel ABS for added safety. And let’s not forget those slick 17-inch carbon wheels that complete the killer look.

The Competition model of the 2023 BMW M 1000 RR is decked out in Black Storm Metallic, while the Standard model sports a sleek Light White paint scheme. Whichever version you choose, you’re sure to turn heads wherever you go.

So, if you’re ready to make a statement on the roads and have some serious fun, the BMW M 1000 RR is calling your name. But be prepared to shell out a pretty penny for this two-wheeled beauty. It’s time to take your riding experience to a whole new level with the M 1000 RR.
