Starting with the motor, the 999cc DOHC inline-four-cylinder engine now registers 168 bhp thanks to the improved intake port geometry and fuel mapping, while the peak torque output remains the same at 114 Nm. The 6-speed gearbox has been tweaked with a shorter second gear and final drive ratio to provide greater responsiveness at road-legal speeds. In addition, the 2025 model also gets Drag Torque Control (MSR) and Engine Brake Control as standard, further improving the rider’s safety by preventing rear-wheel slip due to sudden throttle cuts or downshifting. Furthermore, the S1000R and M1000R are equipped with BMW’s new M short-stroke throttle grip, reducing the throttle action from closed to wide open from 72 degrees to 58 degrees.
