Seen one in action at th ccs race a couple weekends ago at CMP.It was fast for sure but it put the power to the ground very well.Electronic package must be very good.
...and now you're not? Don't let that number "scare" you. The BMW is the smartest production bike on the planet. You do not have 190HP at your fingertips at all times. IIRC, power is restricted to around 145HP in 1st gear, then it progressively increases as you select higher gears. The bike "knows" you simply cannot utilize 190HP in 1st gear and keep the front end down, so you don't have it. IIRC, you actually don't have the full 190HP till you reach the upper ranges of 4th, 5th and 6th gears. From what i have read, the BMW is the easiest bike to be fast on because of how the electronics keep things under control.
When they make the fairings and headlights match, i will get one. Yes, my OCD bothers me that much. I know the BWM's are the best bang-for-the-buck motorcycle on the planet...by a LONG shot; but i can't get past the mismatched shit.
........The pic is before I fondle it smart guy....thats just off the truck from BMW atlanta..........
I was referring to the people that were turned off by the bike because of the unmatched headlights. My point being that this particular problem goes away once the bike has a set of race glass on it. I think they are ass ugly street bikes. But they do make a sexy race bike.
