2022 BMW S 1000 XR First Look: Fast Facts for Adventure Sport-Touring
Although unchanged in standard trim, the 2022 BMW S 1000 XR street-focused adventure motorcycle gets a couple of new colors and a reworking of the Premium Package. The Select and M Packages are returning, and the Sport Package won’t be around in ’22. Let’s go over what’s included in each optional Package.
The Select Package runs $650 and is pretty simple. You get heated grips, tire pressure monitoring, and luggage mounts.
The $2650 Premium Package has the Select Package features, plus a few goodies added by BMW compared to last year. Hand protection and a centerstand now come with the Premium Package, and GPS Prep migrates from the discontinued Sport Package. Returning is semi-active electronic suspension, a quickshifter, cruise control, keyless operation, and a USB charging port.
The M Package goes for $2600, and this is what you get:
- Sport muffler
- M Forged Wheels
- M Endurance chain
- M Sport seat
- M lightweight battery
- Sport windshield
- Light White paint
The standard color this year is Racing Red, with Ice Grey disappearing as a choice. Black Storm Metallic 2 Style Triple Black is now an optional color with a $475 price tag. If you like Light White, you have to buy the entire M Package. The base MSRP for the 2022 BMW S 1000 XR is $17,945. Expect to see the XR literbike in BMW dealers in the last quarter of this year.
