Hi there everyone, just recently picked myself up an S1000RR after spending many years on a CBR600RR
I was always interested in the S1K and after finally battling time and weather constraints finally took a test ride and fell in love straight away!!
Just had my limiter pulled off mine after the 1K service and couldn't be happier with the bike it just rides like a dream.
Out here in Oz mine is one of 3 special edition models done by a motorrad dealer pained up in WSBK colours, it just looks amazing and i couldnt pass up the opportunity when i found out there was ONLY 1 LEFT!!!

When i went to pick up the bike there was a guy about to test ride one and he was eyeing off my new bike still in the showroom, (obviously thinking it was still for sale) i told him that i test rode the Bemma last week and it was amazing, he responded with yeah but that one there looks awesome..i didnt have the heart to tell him it wouldnt be here when he got back cause it was MINE!!!


Ive only done some small things like add Blue shorty pazzo levers with red clickers, yoshimura fender eliminator, Oggy knobs and axle sliders and Black Cox radiator guards, but i have so much still planned for this bike, Akrapovic Racing full system, ilimberger carbon 1pce belly pan (to cover up the gaping hole left from installing the full system) BMC filter, PCV, Zero Gravity Corsa Tint screen, Woodcraft or Yoshimura Case Guards, and thats all i can think of currently.
Glad to see there is such a great place for enthusiasts of the S1K to come, keep up the great work everyone!!

Whilst I wouldn't be so keen to ride around looking like a corporate campaign, it does look abosolutely fab. I hope you're charging them advertising rates.

Great bike - love mine.
