BMW M 1000 RR Highlights
BMW Motorrad has launched the much-awaited M 1000 RR in India in two variants: Standard and Competition. Prices start at Rs 42,00,000 (ex-showroom). These bikes are being imported as CBUs (Completely Built-up Units), hence the high price tag. Bookings for the bikes have commenced across all BMW showrooms in India.
BMW Motorrad will also offer a range of optional equipment and accessories to choose from. The M 1000 RR comes with a standard warranty of three-years/unlimited kilometers. Alternatively, you can even opt to extend the warranty period for the fourth and fifth year, for extra money of course.

The Competition adds lighter more sophisticated components to the mix.

In terms of electronic rider aids, the bike gets four riding modes -- Rain, Road, Dynamic, and Race -- in the standard trim with Pro riding modes (Race Pro 1-3) offered as optional extras. The Pro modes are freely programmable as per the rider’s needs, which means you can alter the sharpness of the throttle, engine braking, traction control, wheelie control, ABS, and ABS Pro. The ‘Pro Modes’ also give access to launch control and add a pit-lane limiter.
