I hear you, Baron. I've owned one new bike in my life, an RSV4 Factory. I took care of it, not in a cover it in cotton wool sense though, I loved riding it and it sounded ridiculously good and you would never get bored of hearing that V4, but knowing how much its individual parts were worth, I would always wonder if it would still be where I parked it whenever I went anywhere and it took the fun out of owning it to be honest.

Been riding for longer than you've been staining the planet and the furthest I've ridden in a day (650 back from the Loire Valley) is on... An RR. Fantastic one-up tourer, great luggage system, over 50mpg on a run, will do 20mph in 6th, looks like an endurance racer (if you don't like the asymmetric lights; you're a dick) and even suits arthritic old farts. As you rightly say; RESPECT!

which is very impressive I have to agree, mighty impressive actually, what they managed to create. But (you know a "but" has to come here) - and I say this is a matter of personal preference- isn't it cool if a bike has some backbone, some character. That makes you uncomfortable one way, but gives a bike personality, which makes it that much more. A bike that couldn't care less about an "arthritic old fart" (my father's one, I love him) coldstarting it on a november morning to ride to about 50°C engine temperature to drop him off at bingo for all that I know. A bike that just wouldn't think about starting for such a crappy idea. Because it's a racebike. It is meant to be carassed and cared after just to be spanked towards it's rev-limiter afterwards. It makes it a diva. It does. And some will rightly say: "well thats just a crap bike" -and I totally agree. I ride an XR 600R, and I hate it's kickstarter sometimes. And after the exitement to ride such a raw bike round the city I hate to do so regularly. But it makes up for it. It makes up for it the first time you use it for what it was created for. Because it's a baja 1000 winner. It gives it character. Its the best of its time. And I don't want a racebike that takes me to bingo, just as I don't want to take a "bingo-bike" (whatever that would be) on a racetrack. And some people get that. they get it. They understand that the valley makes the mountain. An that you have to give something to get something. And I agree that the BMW is the best example that this is untrue. You can have the november bingo before spanking it on track. And this is impressive. And cool in it's own way. And I don't want to say the bmw doesn' have character. Because it does. It was just something else they were after. All I am saying is that creating a valley, and creating backbone, creating a diva, can make a mountain that much more exiting. And filling up the valley makes it better in logical terms, but boring in emotional.

The s1000rr is one of those bikes that's got your back. If you fuck up or get out of your depth it'll be there to smooth you through the crisis and even make you look good, rather than spit you off and leave you in the cemetery or A&E. It was a game changer on release and I doubt BMW will drop the ball with the new model.

Couldn't agree more with this video and I'd back that up by saying I have a 2016 S1000RR. For the road it's still the bike to have, for the track the Ducati and Yamaha have it - but only if you have the skills to take advantage of them. IF you're new to the track it's not worth worrying about and the S1000RR will be easier to ride around a track too. I use the S1000RR to ride for fun and for commuting around the San Francisco Bay Area having transplanted here from Bolton, England.

Two things: first, in terms of credit being due, BMW have Suzuki to thank for the S1000RR. I recall that BMW took an '05 GSXR1000 and stripped it to nuts and bolts to figure out what made it so good; I think they were actually quite honest about doing it too. That gave them direction for the base platform. They then began to refine the package and create the S1000RR; which, I agree, then moved things on. Secondly: top tip, worst thing you can possibly do is wipe dried bird lime off a car with a napkin; might as well use sandpaper. Tissue paper, loads of water, soak, dab off very carefully, otherwise you will scratch the paint.
