Watch the video below for the MCN world first ride report on the 193bhp BMW S1000RR.
According to MCN chief road tester Trevor Franklin, "the handling will make other manufacturers wince with embarrassment."

Its about the bike
Just like to say thanks to MCN for the video, was interesting to see the new BMW bike, like the look of it and prob. wont get a chance to see it otherwise, any videos of new bikes are always welcome, so stop moaning about how good or bad the presenter was, I thot the guy was fine, maybe some of you should try doing his job sometime, see how you get on.
Keep up the good work guys.
PS. The R1 frame isn't pink it's red, think it looks stunning.

TREVS WORDS!!!
Mr.Franklin,
you may be a top journalist and rider, but not the best commentator. What are these strange words you are using to describe the BMW? BUDDEN,SEDDING,BUDDERFLIES,BEDDER and LAIDER.
Keep up the good work!

It's about the bike, innit? Not about some poor sod who has to be lumped with a video camera and microphone and what seems to be according to the credit some other bloke roped in to hold the camera. So how much do youse reckon it would cost to send a vid crew? Never mind. Gunshot72 said: "I would have considered trading in the Blade for one of these but the presenter has put me right off." W T F has the presenter got to with anything? I was thinking of buying Buckingham Palace but the social has just given me a quid extra this month. Twat.
Anyways, put R1 and BMW side and you'll see the BMW wins. look at exhaust silencer design, look how many fasteners are not thrown at the BMW and it hasn't got a godawful pink frame.

I agree with Yeharrr, Thanks for a good Video, keep up the good work. As for the comment from Yawnnnnnn about BMW Dealers you obviously haven't been to Southport Superbikes, Mike, Roy and all of the staff are down to earth and are always welcoming.

Good video
Some people commenting sound like they want to be entertained by zany presenters and artistic camera angles. Not me.. I watch MCN videos because Im interested in bikes, listening to them, looking at them and hearing what peolple have to say about them.. For me this video was fine.
