The 2024 R1M comes equipped with an array of advanced features that enhance both performance and rider experience. The aluminum Deltabox frame is paired with Öhlins® Electronic Racing Suspension, offering fully adjustable front and rear settings to accommodate varying track conditions and rider preferences. The braking system is equally impressive, featuring ABS-equipped double disc brakes at the front, ensuring exceptional stopping power and control. With a sleek design in Icon Performance color options, the R1M doesn’t just perform; it turns heads with its aggressive aesthetics. Additional tech features, including an electric starter and a sophisticated instrumentation display, provide riders with a seamless connection to their machine.
