M1000RR can arrive with electric compressor

BMW Motorrad requested the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) to register for three new names, M1000RR, M1300GS and M1000XR, and these would be sport versions with the “M” symbol that ''House Bávara'' intends to adopt on its sports motorcycles, as you already do in the classification of your cars.
And now a new rendering has emerged, developed by the brilliant mind of digital artist Nirjar Mardal, showing the look of the new super sportscar M1000RR, supercharged with an unusual electric compressor that BMW has been developing for a few years.
Mardal imagined what the new M1000RR would look like and the truth is that its design is impressive and ensured that Casa Bávara's new super sportscar had the sporty appearance of the new model, aggressive and ferocious, with its prominent triangular headlights, complex fairing with details in carbon fiber, the seat with the floating impression and the slightly increased wheelbase, since the high level of sportiness considers a longer wheelbase to keep it on track in strong jerks and at high speeds, especially considering that the motorcycle will be equipped with a compressor installed under the motorcycle, arguably the most interesting feature of the drawings.



Interesting the fact that, despite the aggressiveness, the look conveys a feeling of lightness, mainly due to the small tail in carbon fiber, the minimalist rear scale and the wheels with five very thin points.
Until the trademark of the new BMW M1000RR appears, the theory signaled that the next generation of the S1000RR would be supercharged. Specialized international sources suggest that forced induction could add up to 16 horsepower to the S1000RR's 1,000-cylinder in-line four-cylinder engine to reach the 220 hp barrier, in a light package with a total weight of around 170 kg.



All of this is pure speculation, and it is a fact that the Germans want to renew their image of sportiness on two wheels, but as BMW is in the habit of keeping its secrets under lock and key until they are ready to be revealed, and considering how excellent it is the performance of the S1000RR, it makes sense to add a little “M” performance to the image of motorcycles.
