John Candy might have said it the best with his line in the 1981 military movie Stripes… “You’re a lean, green, fighting machine!”. BMW seemingly has taken that to heart with not one, but three new Lean & Green Fighting Machines of their own and named them the 2027 BMW Nürburgring Editions. 2027 BMW M1000RR 100 Jahre Nürburgring Edition, 2027 BMW M1000R 100 Jahre Nürburgring Edition and 2027 BMW M1000XR 100 Jahre Nürburgring Edition.
Each new BMW motorbike celebrates the 115th running of the historic Isle of Man Tourist Trophy in British Racing Green Matte color with special TT graphics, With 115 units globally and a very limited number allocated to the U.S. MSRP of $50,000 plus destination is high but understandable for those who have money to burn in their pockets; which isn’t many of us today unfortunately. And for those lucky souls, pre-Orders go live on Tuesday, Sept. 29 at 2:00 pm ET / 11:00 am PT so get your BUY NOW finger ready.
While I’m a fan of special edition bikes, I really don’t like the extreme markup prices some of them are coming out with, nor the fact that manufacturers are seemingly grabbing hold of the idea of ditching affordable bikes and swapping them with ultra-exclusive models. Why sell 1000 bikes to keep the sport going when you can sell 50 that will sit in museums right?
The good news is these three new BMW’s will actually come with more than just paint and stickers. But if you think it’s worth the $50k that’s up to you.
Here is what you’ll get extra: In addition to all standard equipment found on the BMW M 1000 RR with M Competition package, this limited-edition model will also include the following exclusive features: Milled numbering on the top yoke, Certificate of Authenticity, British Racing Green Matte paint finish including specific TT graphics: Selected left-hand turns on the left fairing side, Selected right-hand turns on the right fairing side, Aluminum tank painted in Satin Chrome including graphics, Black alcantara seat, Matte-finish M carbon airbox cover, with Mountain Course graphic and TT logo, M Race Cover Kit, Black swingarm, TT branding and lettering on the rear frame, Rear wheel stand with mounting equipment and M Motorcycle Mat (98 x 41 inches) with M logo and TT logos.

Homage to the Isle of Man Tourist Trophy
For decades, the Tourist Trophy has stood for outstanding rider skill, maximum precision and exceptional technical performance.
BMW Motorrad has a close connection to this history – from Georg Meier’s legendary TT victory in 1939 to current successes on the S 1000 RR and M 1000 RR. The Limited-Edition model takes up this heritage and translates it into a distinctive, exclusive production model.
BMW Motorrad and the TT: Historical Milestones
In 1939, Georg Meier won the Senior TT on the BMW RS 255 Kompressor. In 1976, another major TT success followed: Helmut Dähne, together with Hans-Otto Butenuth, won the 1,000 cc Production class on the BMW R 90 S. In the modern era, BMW Motorrad has continued this tradition on the Mountain Course with the S 1000 RR and later the M 1000 RR.
Successes since 2014
Since the introduction of the RR models in the modern TT era, BMW Motorrad has repeatedly demonstrated its competitiveness on the Mountain Course. Michael Dunlop achieved a breakthrough in the 1,000cc class on the BMW S 1000 RR in 2014. Peter Hickman shaped the more recent period of success with multiple victories, including a hat-trick in 2022 in the Superbike, Superstock and Senior TT races on BMW motorcycles. In 2025, Davey Todd further underlined the performance of the BMW M 1000 RR with a Superbike victory and additional strong results in the 1,000 cc classes. A particularly striking testament to current performance is the overall all-time lap record on the TT Mountain Course set
in 2023: 16:36.115 minutes with an average speed of 136.358 mph (approx. 219.4 km/h), achieved by Peter Hickman on a BMW M 1000 RR in Superstock specification.
Very Limited Availability
The M 1000 RR Limited Edition Isle of Man TT will be produced in a strictly limited run of 115 global units, further emphasizing its exclusive collector character. A very limited number of these units will be available for purchase by U.S. customers.
