Default Picked up the new 2011 S1000rr today....







Well it feels exactly the same as the 2010 bike i had but it feels a little bit like it has abit more grunt than my last s1000rr ???? and there is definitely a difference it the gear change it feel alot better and more precise and a little bit stiffer but only slightly,it was also a pig to find neutral from 1st gear at the dealers but now there's 120 miles on it riding it home today its going in to neutral from 1st gear easily now,gearbox feels great and no missed gears at all,another 380 miles and slick mode,cant wait...lol and the suspension still feels too soft but i'll tweak it as much as i can for the time being,fitted my old seat cowl by just swapping the lock out so i'll fit the D3 tail tidy and the tec bike cat cover tomorrow and get rid of the rear pegs and fit the R+G covers and the R+G rad gaurd and oil cooler gaurd if it warms up abit, then just wait till the watsen turn signals arrive in the post hopefully in the next 2 weeks and find a mra or puig db screen in a week or two,also came with the k3 metzlers aswell which i was happy about,opted for the HP levers and rear sets again as they were cheap with the discount they gave me,excuse the chicken strips but its freezing here today so no knee down fun....

Nice one Buzz

I'll have to watch out for you around Brecon this Spring/Summer.

Dont forget to post plenty of pics as you add stuff to your bike.
