BMW S1000RR fuel consumption

Quick answer
A BMW S1000RR superbike usually yields 30 to 40 mpg, depending on throttle aggression and speeds. Track sessions can push it under 30 mpg.
Detailed answer
BMW’s S1000RR is a 999cc four-cylinder race-oriented motorcycle. Its advanced tuning and high rpm potential mean it can accelerate rapidly, raising fuel consumption. Street riders who keep revs modest might see around 35–40 mpg. Spirited rides on twisty roads or track days can drop mpg into the mid-20s or worse.
Maintaining correct tire pressure and regularly checking chain tension, oil, and filters helps the engine run efficiently. Still, the S1000RR prioritizes performance, so owners accept fueling more frequently than on a commuter bike. For those craving top-tier superbike engineering, mid-30s mpg on easy cruises is respectable, but it plunges once you unleash the 200+ hp potential.
