As the name suggests, the M 1000 XR is based on the BMW S 1000 XR, which is essentially a tall sport tourer or crossover style of motorcycle. While the 2024 version of the BMW S 1000 XR makes 170hp, the M model gets an engine derived from the S 1000 RR superbike. With BMW’s ShiftCam variable valve timing/lift technology as well as other exotica like titanium valves, this motor produces 201hp and 113Nm.
In typical M fashion, the XR gets a bigger set of wings, a striking motorsport livery and more sporty electronic suspension as well as the superb M brakes from the M 1000 RR. The ergos are also revised for a more sporty level of connection, but both the handlebar and foot peg placement will still be on the comfortable/practical end of the spectrum. Nevertheless, this remains a large bike with a 20-litre fuel tank and an 850mm seat height.
The M 1000 XR is currently priced at Rs 48.63 lakh (ex-showroom, India)
