Title: For Bertl
Post by: bobs_buckles on April 28, 2016, 03:41:37 AM

Hi Bertl,
 I will be test riding the S1000RR this weekend weather permitting.
The Tractor may just be giving way to the Rocketship!

If I do jump into the SuperSports arena I will make sure a few track days are in order.

Cheers,
Von FasterThanaSpeedingSloth  ;D

von Buckle Builder,
    Even I as a non-rider can see the beauty in that! What's the rotation and stall speeds on that beauty, or is it just "all burner, no rudder" as we used to refer to a really fast ride of the flying sort?? Get it while you can but know where the edge is and always be on the right side of it........ ;)
Cheers,
Lance

Hi Bertl,
 I test rode the S1000RR on Saturday.
The bike was out of this World to ride. Speed, handling, braking, gear shifting without clutch, style and SOUND! Amazing and I'm so glad I got to ride her....But, she is to much for me to handle. If I had the money I would buy one purely for the track, but alas, I don't. I did feel slightly too large for the slender contours of the bike. My knees were practically up under my chin!

I will stick with my German Tractor for now. A bike that will do a bit of everything and do it well.

Ride safe my friend.
Von B
