WorldSBK manufacturers never stand still and, just days after clinching the 2024 WorldSBK title, BMW have unveiled a new-for-2025 M 1000 RR

BMW have revealed the first look at the new 2025 M 1000 RR machine. It features more power thanks to an engine upgrade, reaching a peak performance of 218 horsepower (up 6hp) at 14,500rpm. The aerodynamics have been revised with wings made from carbon fibre to help produce more downforce when upright and when leaning, increasing corner speeds while leaning but reducing the tendency to wheelie. The aerodynamic downforce load has increased to 30kg at 300km/h, up 7.4kg, but top speed remains at 314km/h. Other changes include modifications to the short-stroke throttle, exhaust, and frame. Check out stunning pictures of the new machine in the gallery at the top of this page!
