M 1000 XR

This is it: the lightest and most powerful production crossover bike in the world. Nothing less. An M bike through and through. Trimmed down for maximum performance – in this case, long-distance performance. That's why it's called the M XR. Or, as we like to call it: MaXimizeR. Because this bike maximises everything: your riding experience, your endurance and, whenever you want, your adrenaline. Alternatively, you can confidently relax while travelling great distances. After all, you know you can leave everyone behind on a whim. #NeverStopChallenging.

Features

Born on the Racetrack

You sense it immediately. The M XR bears that M DNA. It embodies everything that the most powerful letter in the world stands for: leadership, supremacy and playful, effortless dominance. The letter "M" promises top-notch machining with outstanding materials and equipment. Riding an M bike requires excellent riding skills. M combines the fascination of motorsport with a lifestyle in the fast lane. The third M model completes our four-cylinder range.

Maximum exclusivity

Not only visually an M. The M XR is comprehensively equipped with M parts. Right from the start with a glance at the display, the M start-up animation brings you into the M sports world. While the M Sport seat allows you to ride without fatigue, the M winglets provide increased contact pressure on the road through aerodynamic downforce. And the M brake also makes performance precisely controllable.

M + XR = long-distance performance

The equation for an incomparable riding experience of M-like performance and XR-like long-distance capability. You won't want to get off the bike thanks to its sublime ergonomics or the Pro and RACE riding modes. It's all there, and not just in terms of equipment. The M XR is highly versatile with its sport, touring and pillion suitability. Its weight can be minimised even further with the M 1000 XR Competition variant, so that you are on the road with maximum dynamism.

Brute force in your hands

Climb on and you are constantly reminded: the M XR can move you at over 275 km/h. From 0 to 100 in 3.2 seconds; to 200 in 7.4. This is made possible by the BMW ShiftCam four-cylinder engine of the RR, adapted for the XR, with 201 hp (148 kW) at a maximum speed of 14,600 rpm. In conjunction with the sports gearbox with shorter ratios in 4th, 5th and 6th gear, as well as a shorter secondary ratio, the M XR is perfected for performance-oriented long-distance journeys. This helps you take the lead whenever you feel like it.

The measure of all things

Perfection is the sum of all details. No millimetre has been left to chance. With elaborate M paintwork and exclusive parts, like the milled M clutch lever and M brake lever on the M XR Competition, the design sets sporty standards. The shorter, tinted sports windscreen also demonstrates that this bike originates from the M Motorsport mould.

Leadership par excellence

Ready? Take a seat, start the engine and dive into the M world. Behind you is the slim, performance-oriented rear with short number plate carrier. It's from this point you leave everything behind. You lead. You hear the incomparable sound that comes from the steep Akrapovič slip-on rear silencer. Your passenger also has the full M experience thanks to the passenger seat contour, slim grab handles and rear footrest bracket.

The perfect start: the M start-up animation

When your M XR starts up, you are immersed in the full M Experience. The TFT display switches on with the unmistakable M start-up animation and shows itself ready for your personal challenges.

Carbon parts: lighter = more power
Carbon parts: lighter = more power

With the carbon parts of the M Competition package on the M 1000 XR Competition, the M XR is 3 kg lighter. These include M Carbon wheels, M Carbon mudguard, M Carbon side sections and M Carbon cockpit interior trim.

Designed for performance right down to the rear
Designed for performance right down to the rear

The motorsport genes of the M XR are in every detail: from the M milled parts on the M 1000 XR Competition, such as the M clutch and brake lever, to the slim rear section with steep titanium rear silencer and short number plate carrier.

Powerful and direct: the engine
Powerful and direct: the engine

The M XR has everything you need for speed. The beating heart is its extremely powerful and high-revving ShiftCam engine with 148 kW (201 hp) and a maximum speed of 14,600 rpm.

Getting performance under control: the M brake
Getting performance under control: the M brake

The optional M brake offers maximum performance and resistance point and fading stability as well as excellent dosing. Externally, it is recognisable by the blue eloxal coating and M logo.

Controlled force: with M winglets
Controlled force: with M winglets

The M winglets tame the brute power of the M XR. They generate downforces at high speeds and thus provide greater driving stability, a lower tendency to do wheelies, as well as a smoother ride.

Fast forward: the ultra-sporty front
Fast forward: the ultra-sporty front

The front has an "all-black" finish, including the milled, black, upper fork bridge and legs. The M colours create an unmistakable visual asymmetry and, together with the tinted Sport windscreen, emphasise the bike's performance-oriented character.

An upgrade for the handling: M Carbon wheels
An upgrade for the handling: M Carbon wheels

The M Carbon wheels, available only on the M 1000 XR Competition, with sports tyres take the handling of your M XR to an unimaginable level by reducing rotational mass. This way you get full power on the road from first gear.
