[@T1000ruless]

yes but the bmw was equipped with the m package it should be compared to the v4r and rsv4rf. the fun is that the base model aprilia rsv4rr is still faster than a fully equiped s1000rr.

[@BigUriel]

He also points out (rightfully so) that lap times for stock bikes are kind of a moot point, 99% of riders will never race them, and those who will will certainly customize them. It's particularly irrelevant when the differences between modern superbikes are so small. Truth is even the slowest superbike today is stupidly fast. It makes more sense to compare them on things that matter on the road and characteristics that are not easily changed. If I won the lottery I'd buy the Ducati, because 1100cc is better than 1000, and because I love the way it looks and sounds (not in that colour though) and you get wonderful details like the single sided swingarm. More realistically I'd buy the S1000RR which is maybe not as quick or exotic but very close, more practical as a road bike and far cheaper. In fact it's so good that unless the Japanese come up with something really incredible soon I can't think of a reason why anyone would buy any of their superbikes over BMW's.

MCN You should not be taking the manufacturers word for it when it comes to power output and weight as they always lie. 650ib has already dynoed them and a Ducati V4R and also weighed them stock. Beamer made most HP with Aprilia closely following. Aprilia made the most Torque with the beamer in 2nd. The Ducati was least powerful in HP and Torque. The Bmw M sport was also the lightest edging out Ducati by 1 pound. With the Rsv4 being the heaviest.

Love the plug for the Tuono at the end of the review. Still the most versatile bike on the planet and at 16-19K USD !

I've been waiting for this all year

Comparing these bikes is just like comparing current generation RC213 V vs YZR M1 vs Desmosedici GP 19.

The best review Ever.. Thinking what bike you want to buy and fit in you style and taste ...

[@JohnSmithExtra]

Love the S1K, you can always swap brakes, and setup the ECU! It's the 2JZ of the SuperSport world, it decimates all!

[@DearMajesty]

Great review. Thanks for the honest review! Given that they are all so similarly matched, I think it would be really beneficial to talk about reliability, maintenance costs, and actual MSRP (price), of these bikes. I think this can be the deciding factor for a lot of people!

[@johnnazar180]

I'd like to point out both Aprilia and Ducati require an extra 100cc's to keep up with the BMW.

[@ZX6R2KGT]

I mean it's an awesome bike but that's a very presumptive statement. You're assuming that if they had made a new 1000cc instead that it would automatically be slower because their 1100's are where they are now. That's a hard thing to prove. They're all great bikes and they keep making each other push the limits which is good for us.

[@evanhall7681]

1. Neither are a full 100cc more than the bmw. 2. They are using the M version of the bmw and not the R version of the Ducati. The v4r is 999cc and generates more power than the v4s. Just sayin.

[@jakobnorrestam]

Actually the aprilia has 1073cc, and the V4 layout is generally heavier than an inline 4

[@dfw_motorrad1329]

@@evanhall7681 They are comparing bikes within the same price bracket. The V4R is a $40,000 motorcycle. The M Package RR is $22,000. The V4S is $21,500. The 1100 Factory is $24,500. You want to compare the M Package to the V4R? Fine. Compare the V4R to the HP4 Race.

[@MW_1981]

@@dfw_motorrad1329 but the V4R can be taken on public roads, where as the HP4 Race can't as its just a track bike.

[@flyingiguana409]

what helmet is that, I don't see it on arai's site

[@VeeFour]

They are all just different flavours of amazing. There's so many great bikes around these days, I wish I could own them all and have homes next door to Oulton Park, Silverstone and Jerez 😉

[@johnnazar180]

Why would you not use the V4r? The brand new bike that released alongside the NEW Aprilia and the NEW BMW...

[@xanderpaul8037]

I've heard that Ducati have put a blanket ban on comparing the v4r against other bikes on and off track but not sure how true that actually is

[@dfw_motorrad1329]

The V4R is double the price of these bikes. Why would you not use the HP4 Race? Why would you not use Aprilia's MotoGP bike? This is a $22,000 price bracket of European road-going superbikes.

[@r1mac681]

Great reviews, sportbikes rock always will, track days, commuting Sunday scratch, touring, who needs an adventure bike.😂😂🤔

[@Petrolheadish]

Great video, MCN worthy! Thank you!

[@samrit123in]

Another no-nonsense, brilliant review from Neeves. Now we patiently wait for the keyboard warriors, who not only have in-depth knowledge of superbikes, but are also the fastest in the track and road.

[@elliotwoodhouse2459]

Can anyone else see that the styling of the Aprilia at 0:14 looks a little bit like the '07 fireblades? The two headlights just remind me of it

[@mynature3270]

Awesome reviews from MCN 😍 I like their hard work. Take care riders😊

[@irshadedries4260]

Great well rounded video

[@stevemac7933]

How’s the Aprillia a small bike when it’s the tallest out there ?
