The Euro 5+ emissions standards have ensured that the manufacturers upgrade and update their models in line with the latest emission norms.

BMW has been able to churn out 6 additional power from the M 1000 RR’s motor, taking the total output to a strong 218bhp. The M 1000 RR’s winglets grow even bigger for 2025 and the fairing has seen slight tweaks. Similarly, the S 1000 RR sportbike also gets the redesigned fronts and winglets but remains mechanically same.
