2026 BMW M 1000 XR Blackstorm Metallic/M Motorsport
Born to leadThis is it: the lightest and most powerful production crossover bike in the world. Nothing less. An M bike through and through. Trimmed down for maximum performance – in this case, long-distance performance. That's why it's called the M XR. Or, as we like to call it: MaXimizeR. Because this bike maximizes everything: your riding experience, your endurance and, whenever you want, your adrenaline. Alternatively, you can confidently relax while traveling great distances. After all, you know you can leave almost everyone behind on a whim. #NeverStopChallenging
Features may include:
The perfect start: the M start-up animation- When your M XR starts up, you are immersed in the full M Experience. The TFT display switches on with the unmistakable M start-up animation and shows itself ready for your personal challenges.
- With the carbon parts of the M Competition package, the M XR is over 6 lbs lighter. These include M Carbon wheels, M Carbon mudguard, M Carbon side sections and M Carbon cockpit interior trim.
- The motorsport genes of the M XR are in every detail: from the M milled parts, such as the M clutch and brake lever, to the slim rear section with steep titanium rear silencer and short license plate carrier.
- The M XR has everything you need for speed. The beating heart is its extremely powerful and high-revving ShiftCam engine with 201 hp and a maximum speed of 14,600 rpm.
- The M brake offers our maximum performance and resistance point and fading stability as well as excellent dosing. Externally, it is recognizable by the blue eloxal coating and M logo.
- The M winglets tame the brute power of the M XR. They generate downforce at high speeds providing greater riding stability, a lower tendency to lift the front wheel, and a smoother ride.
- The front has an "all-black" finish, including the milled, black, upper fork bridge and legs. The M colors create an unmistakable visual asymmetry and, together with the tinted Sport windscreen, emphasize the bike's performance-oriented character.
