The M 1000 RR is BMW's serious supersport. A special edition like this appearing in South Africa proves there are people out there riding it seriously too. Don't dismiss it as just a color change — the joy of ownership boosts the motivation to ride. That's part of speed too.

When a special edition is mostly just a color change, the substance often doesn't change as much as the price gap suggests.
