The BMW M 1000 RS is a limited edition model of 1,000 units worldwide, and was revealed at EICMA 2026. Built on the M 1000 R with the M Competition Package, BMW calls it its most powerful street naked motorcycle yet. The 999cc inline-four is the same engine as in the M 1000 R and M 1000 RR, but here it makes 218hp at 14,500rpm and 113Nm at 11,000rpm, BMW claims a 0-100kph time of 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 283kph. 

Standard fitment includes an M full-titanium exhaust, along with carbon winglets and M Carbon wheels. The seat is 20mm higher than on the M 1000 R, and the foot pegs are carried over from the M 1000 RR, which BMW says creates a more front-wheel-oriented riding position. Features include multiple riding modes, adjustable traction control, cruise control, keyless ignition and tyre pressure monitoring, along with a 6.5-inch TFT with a dedicated M start-up animation. Optional extras include a low windscreen, handlebar risers and different seat options, as well as M Performance Parts such as a data logger with a GPS lap trigger.
