Ajith Kumar Adds BMW S1000RR Superbike To Swanky Fleet

BMW's flagship superbike finds a spot in Ajith Kumar's growing collection. South actor Ajith Kumar, known for his love of superbikes and racing, has added a new machine to his garage, the BMW S1000RR. A video filmed in Dubai shows the actor riding the superbike out of a hotel parking area. It is nighttime, and Ajith is suited up in riding gear, making for an impressive visual. Ajith has chosen the Light White Uni / M Motorsport colour scheme, which includes sporty M Carbon wheels and M footrests. Ajith has always had a strong interest in bikes. Earlier, he was seen riding a BMW R1200GS in India on road trips. While the R1200GS is more suited for adventure touring, the S1000RR is built for speed and performance, both on roads and race tracks. Ajith enjoys both styles of riding. What Makes the S1000RR Special? BMW Motorrad launched the updated S1000RR this year at the Bharat Mobility Expo. In India, it reportedly costs Rs 21.10 lakh (ex-showroom). The 2025 model gets sharper design updates, new winglets for better downforce at high speeds, and a sleeker side and tail profile. These changes are visible in the video in which Ajith was seen. The bike is packed with top-end features like five riding modes (Rain, Road, Dynamic, Race, and Race Pro), launch control, traction control, hill start assist, and a 6.5-inch digital display. It runs on a 999cc inline-four engine that produces 206.5 bhp and 113 Nm of torque. The superbike can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds and has a top speed of over 300 km/h. Other advanced features include a quickshifter, anti-hopping clutch, and a new short-stroke throttle. Strong Sales in India Despite being a high-end bike, the S1000RR has reportedly found great success in India. As per Cartoq, BMW Motorrad recently delivered the 1,000th unit in Delhi, marking a major milestone. The bike competes with other litre-class superbikes like the Ducati Panigale V4 and Aprilia RSV4 Factory. Its smooth handling, performance, and relatively competitive pricing make it a favourite among Indian superbike fans. Ajith's latest ride is just another reminder of his deep passion for motorcycles and his love for the thrill of the ride. view comments Location : Delhi, India, India First Published: July 31, 2025, 11:37 IST News auto Ajith Kumar Adds BMW S1000RR Superbike To Swanky Fleet Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
