New Keeper

Alzo · August 31, 2018, 07:16:50 PM

Tomorrow I'm off to pick up one of these bad boys...a BMW S1000R Sport in Motorsport colours...had the 2015 version and then delved into the Adventure sector...enjoyed it...but realised I missed the Roadster style which if being perfectly honest more suits my stature and how I want a bike to perform underneath me...looking forward to ownership.

love the looks. I am sorely tempted to get one myself. Are they really as good as the reviews? Do they handle well?

I'm going back because they are so good...engine is a peach...electronic suspension is sublime...brakes are some if not THEE best in the business...I can't wait to get onboard.

I'm on my second one, Alzo's going back for more, they are definitely as good as the reviews

Cool. I look forward to seeing it in the metal in April.

Red ones are faster

It might have been replaced by a new keeper by then.

No.

I've had one, great bike but soulless, bland screaming 4 pot does nothing for me.

The KTM Superduke 1290R with the Tech pack is a far better, more fun and involving bike.
