BMW recently launched the updated S1000RR in the country, just a few weeks after the motorcycle was unveiled globally. So, here’s everything you need to know about the Bavarian supersport’s 2023 iteration.
Increased Downforce
BMW adapted the limited-edition M1000RR introduced earlier this year based on lessons learned from the WSBK championship. The S1000RR 2023 is made of the same clay as the previous models. While the styling elements and aggressive design language remain, the Bavarian manufacturer has prioritised performance upgrades even in the styling. As a result, the new model has aero winglets at the front. These are standard fitments and are said to add 10kg of downforce.
BMW S1000RR Features
The 2023 BMW S1000RR also receives a taller windscreen that wraps around more for a more comfortable tucked-in position. It also has a more streamlined rear section with a shorter number plate holder.
BMW S1000RR Added Power
The 999cc, inline-four cylinder motor is still present, but thanks to ShiftCam technology, it now produces 206.5bhp, an increase of 2bhp. The torque value is 113Nm at 11500 rpm.
Full of Technology
Similar to its predecessor, the 2023 BMW S1000RR is crammed full of electronics. It features a bi-directional quick-shifter, an ABS with brake slide assist, four riding modes, hill start control, launch control, pitlane limiter, and traction control with slide control. By paying extra, you can also equip your BMW S1000RR with Race Pro 1 to 3 modes.
Pricing
The S1000RR comes in three models: standard, Pro, and MSport. The standard variant is the most affordable, costing Rs 20.25 lakh. The Pro costs Rs 22.15 lakh, while the M Sport costs Rs 24.55 lakh ex-showroom.
