BMW continues to make its way into the motorcycle market, with a new product that presents a power never seen before.
The development of BMW in the world of motorcycles is now clear and evident to everyone, considering how the Motorrad section has reached extraordinary heights in 2023. Numbers that have given it the opportunity to obtain exceptional recognition all over the world, exceeding the sales obtained in previous years in all nations in which it has shown itself.
However, development does not only concern the market, but also motorsport, so much so that in Superbike it is now there BMW it no longer intends to play the role of backup team. The fact of having got your hands on a phenomenon of the caliber of Toprak Razgatlioglu, It shows that BMW has big plans.
Superbikes are not only perfect bikes for racing, but are also based on standard two-wheelers. One of these was able to renew itself in 2024 and did so by highlighting itself with fabulous performances, with its market price which is certainly considerable, but worth every Euro invested.
BMW M 1000 XR: a fireball with over 200 horsepower
Here BMW has renewed its range with a fabulous one M 1000 XR, a bike that appears to be a superbike, even though it is officially considered a crossover. We are faced with a model that presents itself in a dominant way, given how its length is 217 cm, width 85 cm and height 138 cm.
The overall weight is 211kg, with the engine being a blast 1000cc four-cylinder which can deliver a maximum of 201 horsepower. Exceptional numbers which allow the bike to be improved by 31 horsepower more than the S 1000 XR version of the past.
The peak speed it can therefore reach is 275 km/h, therefore it manages to stay just below the limit allowed by law, thus becoming a road bike as well and not just a track one. If you wanted to find a small flaw in this bike, as highlighted by the test moto.it, is the fact that the handlebars are too subject to vibrations at high speeds. Its starting price is 26,690 Euros, certainly not an insignificant cost, but on the other hand we are talking about one of the most beautiful motorbikes in the world.
