This is a sports tourer built on superbike underpinnings — ridden with luggage and a passenger as often as it is ridden hard — and torque at 6,950 rpm is what a loaded XR uses overtaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 7.8 PS at 7,200 arrives at almost the same point. Both figures describe the same lift in the same part of the curve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Standard Header Is So Heavy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBMW routes four header pipes into a large collector with the catalytic converter inside, all of it under the engine. Meeting Euro 5 on a 170 PS four takes volume, and volume in steel takes weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemoving 6 kg from the lowest point of a 226 kg motorcycle is the largest single weight reduction available to an XR owner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBoth XR Models\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBMW's M 1000 XR arrived in 2024 with more power, revised electronics and M-badged brakes. It shares the engine architecture and the exhaust route with the S 1000 XR, and both take this header across 2020 to 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThree Hours\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e180 minutes, and the reason is packaging: on a faired sports tourer the radiator, the oil cooler and the lower fairing all sit between a spanner and the exhaust ports. This is workshop work with the motorcycle on a lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRemapping Recommended\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAkrapovic notes that a fresh ECU map gives the best performance, throttle response and durability with this header. Removing the catalytic converter changes what the lambda sensors read, and the standard map was written around one being present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKeep the Original Assembly\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBMW's header is a large, awkward part to store, but an S 1000 XR offered with its complete factory exhaust is a considerably easier sale. It is worth the space in the loft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSeven Model Years\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBMW kept this exhaust route from the 2020 S 1000 XR through the arrival of the M 1000 XR in 2024 and on to 2026.
