This is the actual press release and has a lot of details.

Unfortunately, for me the seat height on the S1000RR is already too high at 32.4" and this version raises that another 0.4"! There isn't a low suspension option and adjusting the swing arm only lowers the bike ~ 0.5" Adding the low seat was a free M package configuration option that they removed and therefore costs another $500+ for essentially removing padding making it even more uncomfortable.
The M1000RR fills a hole in the product line between a full on HP4 track only bike and the S1000RR street variant but I'd prefer to stick w/the S1000RR, which already has crazy enough specs, e.g. 205HP. Though, I prefer to configure the new black version w/the race package. Same as S1000RR M Package to but w/the M Forged Wheels instead of the carbon fiber wheels.
After reading this not sure carbon fiber wheels are worth the weight savings for street.

Either way not pulling the trigger until the newer 2021 EU-5 complaint versions land state side to see how they have dealt w/the flat spot in power delivery.
