BMW M1000R | Is It Just Too Much For The Road?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I've been riding the new BMW M1000R for the last two weeks and have been really enjoying the performance this machine has to offer. But is it just too much for the road???

    A good friend is an autocross addict, having owned a few super cars and went back to a Miata. Basically he said the super cars are so well engineered they aren't any fun until 100 mph and you are either going to jail or going to wreck. When things get this refined it's either boring or dangerous LOL. My GS is the most powerful bike I've owned and I have to constantly check my speed as it is, these bikes are best left to KZread for me. Always great to see a vid from you Chops.

    Think this one is for me… crazy, tech laden, high spec suspension, wheels, brakes etc, smoother than a twin, road riding body position, ok MPG and good range (looking at you Aprilia), very powerful… yet reliable (looking at you KTM) and not as crazy a price (looking at you Ducati) and not boring (looking at most Japanese brands)

    We've had the Competition model since it's delivery in April. It's a surprisingly versatile bike considering all the crazy hp. It handles soooo well and with that rear wide tire, it's crazy stable. You can't see anything in the mirrors due to vibration. My husband can ride it all day, but after an hour or so I can feel the vibration soreness in my hands.

    Chops when riding you can go into settings, select assist, then select which electronic suspension setting you would like. You can then have bike in race pro mode with road or dynamic suspension to make ride much plusher on our rubbish roads. I leave my assist in road all the time and can still push hard in pro mode 👍

    Great video. I just viewed a video of UK based company tuning the M1000R with an ECU flash which remedied the bike's fuelling issues at low speeds and also its power delivery issues. I saw another video of a guy riding one at high speed that showed off the front end stability issue you mentioned. He speculated that fitting the aftermarket Öhlins damper might remedy things.

    That thing sounds mental Chopsy! Love it. If I owed one, I don't know which would happen first; killing myself, or losing my license. This bike is clearly not for me. I just purchased a 2023 Speed Triple RS and I think it's got too much power to be sensible. However, I can control it as it has a rather soft bottom end. In the end, it's a great time to be a motorcycle lover. If I were maybe 20 years younger (I'm 66) I'd give this M a try. I'm totally addicted to acceleration! But at my age, I know my limits.

    Prices of these nowadays is ridiculous. I must be in the wrong trade because there's NO WAY I could afford one on my wage. Closed loop is monitoring and adjusting fuel. Open loop is reading from a map. Wideband sensor is reading the full AFR with a signal of 0-5V. Narrowband sensor is reading the AFR but with a narrower signal voltage of 0-1v. Less accurate. So a wideband sensor is the way to go.

    I'd need to set the suspension to the softest settings possible with this bike. I now weigh only 8 stone 11 undressed, after carelessly getting a large garlic clove stuck sideways down my gullet last week. In the 1970's the default spring rates for bikes were almost always too soft, whereas nowadays rock hard seems to be the thing, even for bikes with less sporting pretensions. Incidentally, cold set tyre pressures of 36 front 42 rear are too hard for me also. 33 and 39 is a lot less jarring.

I've ridden most of the Japanese 1,000cc naked bikes, but I've never ridden any of the S1000 series bikes before, so why not jump right into the deep end and try the M? The engineers at BMW were so busy asking if they could, they didn't stop to think if they should! 🤣 What an insane experience. I was smiling the whole time, I forgot how to say anything except "holy shit!" and hours later I'm still keyed up.

    Don't get hung up on hp numbers, torque and gear ratios is what makes a bike accelerate like a loon, higher hp give more top speed. I ride a 23y/o ZX9r, around 140 hp stock and still does 0-60 in 3 secs (again that is stock, who keeps them stock lol). It is very strong on the first touch of the throttle in any gear (I'm always looking for 7th because it still pulls so hard), then goes warp speed around 6-7k rpm. It still does 170mph no problem too, and definitely doesn't need to be able to go 200+ mph.

    Absolutely fantastic review, this has really helped me, as I have finally decided that my new bike is going to be a BMW RR or R. The problem I’m having is that I have sports bikes in the blood, but at 42 and big build, the guy on my right shoulder is saying consider the R, but I don’t want to buy the R and regret it. However, maybe the more aggressive characteristics of M1000R over the standard R will give me the best of both, but with a more comfortable and suitable riding position. Lots to think about, guess I just need to test ride them and see what makes me smile the most. However, your review has pretty much made up my mind. Thank you 😊

It delivered everything that excites me about riding a bike, which was all reflected in your fantastic review. I can get one in 3-4 weeks, so I’m now deciding how much extra carbon parts to add 😂. Thanks again Chopsy! 👍🏻

    My sv1000s has 130whp after some work and personally I think that is my own limit of what can be used on my roads in the newcastle upon tyne area. I think higher torque is the thing that makes bikes scarier as well

    My 1700 VMax produces like roughly 180 rwhp. Never tested though. Doesn't matter. No wheelie control, no traction control, no cruise control, no quick shifter and no drive mode. It's you and the bike. Old fashion but power and torque like hell. Torque from 1000 rpm, revving up to 10.000 rpm. Much, much more than ANYONE would ever need on ANY road. Having it on German roads, I also topped the Max (factory limited at roughly 230 kph) on the Autobahn. Even with 100kg more than the BMW it accelerates faster to 140 kph than the 207hp BMW. Far from aggressive riding position. V4 engine sounds better than any Inliner... Shaft drive keeps maintenance low, prices for used ones are extremely high - no wonder. The BMW will be replaced by a more sophisticated more high tech bike in couple of years and no one will remember that bike, it is just one stone in the line. The VMax (or the Rocket R3) will be noticed as unique bikes even in decades.

    Great review of a fantastic bike. Sadly, It does not offer the protection I need for it to do 25k kms year round. So i advised my dailer to make a reservation as soon as possible for the MXR, to be delivered next spring. The best year round mobility scooter for my 57y old ass. When it comes in the triple black version Hicky showed off, my wife will not even nottice the change.

    Great summary. It's an awesome machine & seemingly a bit of a Jekyll & Hyde. It's quite a feat of engineering to make it so civilised & an equally demented beast.. By definition it has to be too much in terms of ultimate performance but for real world use, it doesn't have to be because of it's refinement. Although what's the point of just pottering about on something like this other than because you can & it's cool (which might be enough)? Also if you're getting it to go on track, why wouldn't you just get the RR? I suppose it's like owning a Ferrari or Lambo, it's just cool & owning it, let alone riding it, is enough to justify having it.

    Whilst it is more than is needed for the road, since when have bikes been a purely practical decision? I buy a bike because of several factors - the way it looks, the way it sounds, comfort, the feeling of freedom and the occasional naughty twist of the wrist. Regardless of if I use all the available power or not, it’s never been a consideration when selecting a bike. There’s a minimum amount of power I’d accept, but I’m not bothered by maximum power. If it ticks all the boxes for what I want, I’ll buy it even if I’ll never use it to its full potential. How many people can truthfully say they can use a bike with 130+ bhp to its full potential on the road without being completely irresponsible? It’s simply not something that anyone really considers for the road and nor should it be. The only time it might be something to think about is for a commuter, but you don’t buy a bike like this just for commuting.

    I’m just trading my 134bhp boxer for a 98bhp Speed Twin. My choice was largely based on your Speed Twin review, which I confess I’ve watched about a dozen times. And largely because of your review, I’m fitting a Nitron 25mm cartridge kit and twin piggy back shocks before I take delivery. The subtle comments, regarding the standard suspension on the Speed Twin, were there for everyone to hear. I reckon it’s up to the viewer to listen carefully and place all comments, positive and negative, in context with their own needs.

    I can definitely see why people love German bikes (or German anything): They do know how to make things that are reliable, and predictable (maybe not the way you are riding it, but in general). They know how to make good electronics, and they certainly know to put a price on it. I much rather pay a higher initial price and have higher service/maintenance costs, than having something that fails at the worst possible moment and with unforeseeable costs to repair.

    I need another bike to take me away from my Gen 1 SDR 1290. I can't replicate the excitement and rawness of that bike in anything else. I've been looking at the m1000r for a while but its design doesn't say super naked to me, just like the Tuono. I wish they did more with the design. Especially the headlight is so lacking. Anyways, good video.

    LCR? I have a M1KR Comp on order. Still thinking about SDR Evo (no Aprilia dealer nearby). Sounds like you like this better, though it seems almost too polished for a naked bike. I can't test ride the SDR but did take the M1KR out last weekend on dynamic mode and it was exactly what I expected thanks to the reviews. I'm currently on a 21 S1Krr M. Also 6'5" and at least 23 stones as you say. Thanks.
