In April 2008, the S 1000 RR was introduced in Munich, and one year later BMW released the bike with only one thing in mind, to compete in the 2009 Superbike World Championship.

To meet the World Superbike homologation requirements, in 2009 BMW manufactured one thousand units of S 1000 RR, and in 2010 expanded the production for commercial sales. In the 1000cc category the S 1000 RR was considered the best-equipped sports bike. The S 1000 RR was the first production motorcycle that was fitted with a quick shifter, meaning that it was not necessary to engage the clutch when shifting gears. The 999cc four-cylinder engine draws a red line at 14,200 rpm.

In November 2018 at EICMA, the S 1000 RR received a full model change for the upcoming year. The new 999cc engine was claimed to produce 204 hp (152 kW) at 13,500 rpm, and 113 Nm (83 lb-ft) of torque. BMW used hollow-bored titanium intake valves and 25 percent lighter new DLC rocker arms, losing four kg (nine lb) and a compact external design. With all the modifications made to the bike, it brings it to a total of 197 kg (434 lb). For the 2018 S 1000 RR, the chassis has been renewed, targeting weight reduction and improved handling. The narrowed front fairing houses two symmetrical LED headlights and a cantered intake for optimal airflow.

For the first time for any BMW motorcycle, the M package was available, and with all the modifications the total weight is 193.5 kg (427 lb).
