It is powered by a liquid cooled 999 cc inline four cylinder mill producing 198.5 PS of maximum power at 12,500 rpm and 113 Nm of peak torque at 10,500 rpm. The BMW S1000RR gets Dynamic Traction Control, three riding modes (rain, sport and race) and Dynamic Damping Control. Optional features include Pro shift assistance and forged aluminium wheels. The gearbox is a 6-speed unit.

The BMW S1000RR is suspended by 46 mm upside down forks with compression and rebound damping adjustable and adjustable preload in the front and a mono shock in the rear allowing similar levels of adjustment. Disengageable BMW Motorrad Race ABS is standard.

In its naked roadster form, the BMW S1000R is a stripped down version of the faired monster. The same 999 cc DOHC four pot mill produces a reduced maximum power output of 164.5 PS at 11,000 rpm and a slightly increased 114 Nm of peak torque at 9,250 rpm. Features like Dynamic Traction Control, launch control and pit lane limiter are standard.

Riding modes are down to two (road and rain) and the bike gets a 6 speed transmission. In place of clip-ons, it gets a conventional handlebar.
