Thanks for all the guidance,I've now spoken to a few owners as well and plan to be riding an S1000rr next year I am waiting to see what BMW launch at the bike show ,cheers.
Just joined ,I want to get an S1000rr but hear a lot of negative comments about them, eg.vibration,wheels ,poor customer service so hopefully this forum can give the real info.I ride a street triple r at the moment.
