New 2019 BMW S1000RR: Rumour, Gossip and Intrigue...

[stuartb]

smaller the better for me. only issue with it being smaller is my missis will want one too. my 17 is slightly too tall for her and she has to make do with her zx10r

Wife has a 10R .. legend ! .....

Don't agree, my GSXR very roomy for my 6ft and 14st and no aches or pains, BMW will pull off the same trick

Yes, latest one, don't know how he finds it cramped, has he got knackered knees or something?

Must admit the new gsxr would be next in line after the bm

Ah ok, can't explain that, all reviews comment on how roomy they are, yeah very strong motor and I love the agility and feel I get from it.

I sat on a 16 plate Gixxer thou the other day..I'm 6ft too...I think it's a roomy machine and you actually sit inside it...not on top...

Never sat on the later model Boomaz...I reckon as far back as 06/07 they all gave me that impression of sitting inside..weird !

If you want comfy, try an RC8R. Like whizzing around on an armchair.
I'm 6' 6" and 100kg, so not usually comfy on a bike.
My Gen 3 is pretty good though. Knees moan a bit on a long day.

Not sure if these have been on here already? accidentally found them this morning from the same guy who posted the Spain petrol station picture.

Looks like more images from the first spy shots/test (circa 2017)

And fyi the rider is Huge sized. 6'7+

Yeah I saw it but it wasn't a good time for me to post it here, just remembered now.

I wonder if, as in the BMW car world, there will be different models with various M options or if you will pick what you want to add to the basic model?

Not as bad as the car's I think - the indicators are included as standard

I have to say I think the dealers are a bit crap on personalisation IMO. When I went to buy mine new, there was no talk of the options beyond the default, alarm, alloys, performance (or whatever it's called) pack. So, none of the bolt on's like HP parts etc.
