2017 BMW S1000R Spied
Germany's streetfighter gets RR inspiration
Photos of a pre-production 2017 BMW S1000R have hit the interwebz, showing new bodywork, a revised frame and updates to make the bike Euro-4 compliant. The photographs were snapped at the Oschersleben racetrack in Germany by members of the S1000RR.de community.
The Akrapovic muffler seen in these photos, likely an accessory item, is significantly larger than the current S1000R’s silencer to keep the emissions and noise levels within Euro-4 requirements. The engine looks identical from the outside, but it’s reasonable to expect a few internal changes similar to what the S1000RR received in 2015, including a new cylinder head, intake cam and lighter intake valves.

With the S1000R in these photos looking to be ready for production, we’ll assume we’ll see the first official pictures of it from the Intermot show in Koln, Germany, on October 4.
