For some time now BMW has provided performan-
ce parts bearing the Tricolour M Power badge, prima-
rily for the S1000RR Superbike. Rumours now abound
that the M logo and name have been trademarked to a
number of BMW Motorcycle names.
Not surprisingly a M1000RR has been registered
as a coming name, no doubt this is based on the
S1000RR, there's also a new name in the M1000XR ...
yes, this would be based on the S1000XR. Yet, there's
one more ...
Strangely, a trademark has been lodged for an
M1300GS. While this would perhaps be based on the
R1250GS the 1300 suggests that there will be either a
capacity increase or just a power boost.
It remains to be seen how and when these bikes
will be released, altough if the four wheeled version
of the M models is anything to go by the bikes could
be extremely high performance machines and highly
sought after, if they are ever released at all.
