KUALA LUMPUR: The new BMW S 1000 RR redefines high-performance sport motorcycles, and features refined riding dynamics, and a more daring, aggressive design.
The recommended retail price (on the road, with BMW Motorrad Malaysia's 3-year warranty and 3-year Roadside Assistance programmes, without insurance) are RM139,500 (S 1000 RR) and RM159,500 (S 1000 RR with M Package).
With the Straight Line Financing Plan from BMW Group Financial Services Malaysia (based on estimates of a 90% loan on a 7-year tenure), ownership of the S 1000 RR starts from RM1,948 per month.
Meanwhile, ownership of the S 1000 RR with M Package starts at RM2,228 per month.
The new S 1000 RR is offered in the striking Blue Stone Metallic, featuring four distinctive tapes on the side panels, and two tapes on the winglets.
With the M Package, the S 1000 RR comes in Light White Solid/M Motorsport colours, accentuated with four tapes on the side panels and two on the winglets.
BMW Group Malaysia managing director Benjamin Nagel shared, “Not too long ago, we introduced the New BMW C 400 X and the New BMW C 400 GT, bringing urban mobility to the forefront in Malaysia. Now, we expand into the world of track performance and off-road, touring and adventure. With the new BMW S 1000 RR, we are catering to riders who demand pure power, precision, and the thrill of the track."
The S 1000 RR now features a new M short-stroke throttle that allows it to respond even more directly to every command at the throttle, new winglets provide increased downforce, a new front wheel cover with integrated brake ducts improves brake cooling and new fairing side panels offer a more striking design.
It is powered by a 999cc water/oil-cooled inline 4-cylinder, 4-stroke engine, producing an output of 154kW (210hp) at 13,750rpm and 113Nm of torque at 11,000rpm.
This high-performance engine, combined with the bike’s lightweight, aerodynamic design, as well as claw-shifted 6-speed gearbox, propels it from 0-100kph in just 3.3 seconds with a top speed of over 300kph.
As standard, it is equipped with the Race Package, which includes the M Endurance chain for exceptional durability, along with a Slip-on exhaust that not only enhances performance but also delivers a signature, emotionally rich sound.
The Dynamic Package is also fitted as standard, featuring Dynamic Damping Control (DDC) that continuously adapts suspension settings in real-time for optimal handling across all riding conditions.
Heated grips and Cruise Control further ensure comfort and effortless control, especially during longer journeys.
For added versatility, the standard Passenger Kit includes a pillion seat cover, allowing for a seamless transition between dynamic solo riding and comfortable two-up touring.
Meanwhile, Tyre Pressure Control (TPC) is fitted as standard.
With the standard inclusion of Riding Mode Pro, riders can also select from RAIN, ROAD, DYNAMIC, RACE, and three additional RACE PRO modes to fine-tune the motorcycle's performance to their preferences.
Meanwhile, the M Package features M carbon wheels with M colour strips, M footrests, a choice of M Endurance or M Sport seat, and a black fuel tank cover – amplifying the bike’s aesthetic appeal.
