well Ive only gone and done it !!!!!!
done a deal on this today against my K8 thou...its a 2011 from Williams BMW in Manchester....
hoping to collect it next Tuesday or Thursday depending on weather...
I was still in two minds what to do,,Id got a very good deal on a 2012 gixer thou from the guys at Redcar and it was a heart verses head dilema....until i rode the S1000RR....now i could do a detailed review but its easier and quicker (one fingered typer) to just say......FOOKIN HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so...just snaps on my phone so far.......
tail tidy and Akro can fitted for when i collect it

Told you you'd love it,i loved my k7 thou especially after the ktech forks and wp rear race shock but once i rode the s1kr i knew it was for me,next mod for me will be sorting the soft front end and getting the rear re valved and get the shim stack sorted.. ;)
 
loving it Buzz!!!!! sadly its made me realise how much I was wrestling the K8 around corners.....
spent last sunday up around Snake Pass, learning to trust the ABS and traction control.... ;D
it just tips in so easily and feels really stable......
first mods going to be exhaust.....prob going to go for Racefit Growler 2 full system......
might get few little carbon bits from NEC show if anything tempts me..
