Woodcliff Lake, NJ – BMW Motorrad USA is proud to announce the return of the Rennsport [Racing Sport] moniker to the BMW motorcycle lineup with the new limited edition 2027 M 1000 RS. The new M hyper naked bike carries with it a heritage of eighty-eight years of track capable production motorcycles, including significant historical customer racing models such as the 1939 BMW R 51 RS, the RS 255 Kompressor and the 1954 RS54.

Since the 1970’s the RS moniker has also referred to ReiseSport [Touring Sport] with models such as the R 100 RS and current R 1300 RS, but now, the M 1000 RS Rennsport firmly brings the original meaning back into the hands of today’s BMW enthusiasts.

“The BMW M 1000 RS makes a clear statement. RS stands for Rennsport – and that is exactly what you feel in every detail. With 205 hp, maximum precision, M Brake and a character all its own, it is BMW Motorrad’s ultimate hyper naked bike. And because true exclusivity needs limits, we are building exactly 1,000 units. More performance. More character. It simply does not get more M than this,” says Markus Flasch, CEO of BMW Motorrad.

The BMW M 1000 RS brings the high-performance credentials of the BMW M 1000 RR to the hyper naked segment. Its unfaired design puts the technology on display, while dark finishes and powerful proportions give it a distinctive, assertive presence. The M rider footrest system from the M 1000 RR and a seat height 0.78 inches higher than the M 1000 R create a more forward-focused riding position, emphasizing the M 1000 RS’s uncompromising sporting character.

The M full titanium exhaust system highlights the bike’s focus on lightweight construction and performance. Matte carbon M winglets with RS lettering combine distinctive racing style with aerodynamic function, while the tail section from the BMW M 1000 RR further underscores its superbike roots. Matte carbon components, a brushed aluminum fuel tank, new graphics and an M seat with an Alcantara look complete its exclusive, dark aesthetic.

At the heart of the BMW M 1000 RS is the superbike engine from the BMW M 1000 RR, featuring updated components including an increased compression ratio, titanium connecting rods, forged pistons with a two-ring piston design. Paired with an unladen weight of just 432 lbs., the engine delivers an exceptional power-to-weight ratio and immediate response across riding situations. The result combines strong acceleration, precise control and hyper naked agility with the advanced engineering of a superbike.
