BMW Motorrad will launch the new S 1000 XR to the Australian market early next year.
The 2024 iteration of the successful long distance sports bike and multiple test winner features a hike in engine power, improved ergonomics, design refinements and expanded standard features.
Reworked in-line 4-cylinder engine now delivers even more impressive performance with a flow-optimised geometry for the intake channels and a power output of 125kW (170hp)
The new S 1000 XR continues to share its in-line 4-cylinder engine with the
S 1000 RR, providing a smooth and powerful torque delivery and a harmonious power characteristic that contributes to outstanding rideability.
Compared with the predecessor model, engine power has been increased by 4kW (5 hp) to 125kW (170hp) at an unchanged nominal engine speed of 11,000rpm.
The key drivers behind the performance increase are a flow-optimised geometry of the intake channels and customised mapping. The maximum torque generated is 114Nm at 9,250rpm.
Improved ergonomics thanks to new seat and even sportier rear section
In order to provide even more freedom of movement, especially during high-performance riding on country roads and race tracks, the seat of the long-distance sports bike has been completely redesigned.
It now offers an extra 10mm of seat height (850mm) and provides more space for the buttocks by increasing the usable length and width of the seat, allowing for better adjustment of the seating position depending on the riding conditions.
The improved ergonomics make it easier for riders to manoeuvre the S 1000 XR on the road or on the race track, providing even better control.
The new S 1000 XR also benefits from redesigned elements in its design. The rear section now features new side panels and air intakes inspired by motorsport, providing a more dynamic look. Additionally, the radiator trim now has a textured surface, and the previously black-coloured "beak" fender is now painted in body colour.
