BMW Superbike - S1000RR. Images and sound !

[stoney]

There's something about most Kwaks, and particular the new ZX-10 that i really don't like, I'm pretty sure they are not designs that will stand the test of time! The same can probably be said about the WSB styled BM.

Just look how bikes like the BCR are holding their value...even compared to MV Agustas.

£6k (£9k new?) for an 05 BCR, £7.5k for a 2000 miler 55 reg MV F4 1000 (£15k new).

I reckon that the HP2s is going to hold its value really well and be a real future classic. A fast bike, built really well, able to do big miles without falling to pieces. I spoke to my dealer yesterday and they have sold their allocation. I just hope the current set of owners look after them so us more lowly folk can pick up some nice second-hand ones for £10k or so in a couple of years time.

How did you know what I was going to do with my retirement lump-sum?

Hmmm

1. you'll need some spare cash to respray the thing - suggested : all black (a bit Jap kitsch as it is or is it simply my sarcasm?)
2. you'll need some good luck - NEVER drop the thing down (CF affordable parts anyone?).
3. you'll need a friend with a KTM RC8 (the business).

That said (Athens recent moto show) I had an opportunity for a short go on that Thing > not bad at all > but not the end of days either...

All-black would work for me.
