For the first time ever, BMW racing department, known solely as BMW M, will be giving its own special touch to the brand-new S1000RR, with the third generation of this German superbike receiving a set of M parts to increase its performance and style.

Usually we see BMW customers using M parts on their cars, but for the first time ever the M logo will be seen on various components for the S1000RR, as optional equipment installed at the factory.

So, what does BMW M division have to make the S1000RR a true track weapon?

This option gives the German superbike a specific Motorsport paint scheme and graphics – red, blue, black and white -, lightweight carbon fiber wheels, lithium battery, a frame kit that will allow you to adjust the swingarm height and position, and for specific track use, the electronics package also offers more options with the riding mode Pro, that unlocks adjustability of many electronic riding aids like traction control, anti-wheelie or stability control.
