The BMW is the most complete and easiest to ride Sbk so far. When they first launched end 2009, they changed Sbk manufacturing forever. If they have been winning BOTY awards for 2 years in a row, there must be a good reason for it.

That said, let me tell you one more thing. You have the choice of riding the S1000RR by turning off all the electronics. I rode the bike by turning off Traction control and wheelie control. Believe me, it remains undoubtedly the best handler in Sbks that I have ridden till date. You are talking about my R1? Nothing even comes close to this lovely machine! My R1 feels like it was made in the stone age!!!

Double like! :P lolz..

I rode this bike yesterday and it is an incredible machine. I started from the showroom with the K1300R followed by the guy from the showroom on the S1000RR. We then switched soon enough as I could not resist getting on this beauty. And this is an easy to ride yet wonderful bike, with some incredible features. I went to an empty road near Chankyapuri and the bike was at 180kmph before I knew it; I was only made to slow down because of a confused Wagon R driver 100m ahead of me. All said though, this bike is incredible, although a bit too over the top with the price, and not too ideal for Delhi traffic. Sorry I don't have many pictures. Will try and post 2-3 pics soon.
