Boy oh boy, these Germans make it hard to save money...

180 HP, titanium sub-frame, carbon bits, Multistrada RS got announced today. Although its pricing will make the M seem like a good deal.

The M is likely going to be somewhere around 21-22k, the multistrada pikes peak is already more and imo that bike is only a little better than the standard XR for the advertised role, albeit a fair bit more premium.

It would be a great price £21-22K, for the M1000XR......but I think you're dreaming....It'll be at least £25k....IMO.  :087

I just bought an XR knowing the M and probably an updated S were inbound, but got it with the deposit contribution and a hefty amount off list. Had I waited for the new model I’d be looking at the thick end of £5K more just for the S, and if the new XRs are anything like the 1300GS then I’ll be even more content. I’m no Luddite but I have no use for adaptive cruise, both my bikes have a perfectly acceptable ride height without auto lowering and I already have blind spot monitoring - it’s called the lifesaver over the shoulder check.

The adaptive cruise control and the auto lowering, will most likely be optional extras, as they are on the R1300GS.

I'm going with 27k USD for the non-competition version and an even 30k USD for the comp.

Going off of the M1000R's price in relation to the XR, XR TE is about 2k more than the R Sport (it was less a little earlier this year.

So given the M1000R is 19.5 I think 22k maybe 23k is what i'd expect.
