Ringer… That’s funny. I received demo bike #10 when they were finished with it after the West Palm dealer intro. to test for Dragbike.com. It made 183 RWHP on the SAE scale on my dyno, bone stock…just like all of the others purchased across the country.
If you guys had ANY idea what you were talking about; Any pre-production bikes without a legitimate VIN # MUST BE DESTROYED so they don't ever get in the hands of the public. Imagine the legal ramification if someone crashes a motorcycle on the street that never legally existed?!
Suzuki let me purchase Chronic after I tested it for Dragbike.com, Kawasaki let me purchase D2 after I tested it and hopefully BMW will let me purchase Christine when we are finished with her. Notice I said purchase, you guys act like I have some clout or something? If it weren't for the fact that I can occasionally put words to paper NONE OF THEM would give me the time of day. It's like my first diary bike, I had to go to my local dealer and purchase it--- then when I liked it and wrote nice things about it for Dragbike.com, Kawasaki said “hey this Brock guy might not be so bad” and made sure I had one of the 08’s sent to me to test for Dragbike.com. Notice I didn't say anything about Brocks Performance; OEM’s don't endorse aftermarket companies. This is how I have to back door bikes to get my hands on the newest ones so I can create the products you guys like to rave about. I'd like to tell you that I can just go out and purchase every new motorcycle out there--- but it simply isn't in the budget. In fact, after our last two years in the motorcycle industry, McDonald's is about the only thing in the budget.
BMW took the bike to UTAH to DISPLAY in front of tens of thousands of spectators, because they want to show people the S 1000 RR can also be turned into a Sportbike drag racer. That’s COOL AS HELL and anyone who drag races should be PRAISING them for their efforts to BRING ATTENTION to what we do. People constantly bitch that motorcycle drag racing never receives the type of credit it deserves, now a prestigious company like BMW comes along and tries to give us some ink utilizing their marketing resources and they are repaid by the ridiculous/tasteless ramblings displayed in this thread? Well it is the Internet, and thankfully they are plenty bright enough to realize that anyone is allowed to get on chime in whether their IQ is in a dead heat with their shoe size or not.

Ps. the top speed is clearly shown on my all year run on page 8… at least with the stock gearing. We also hit the limiter across the finish line on the 8.49 pass, but truth be told we're not really certain if it was the RPM peak limiter or the top speed limiter since we had the bike geared to go through in six. I'm hoping to pick the brains of some of the more technical people involved in the S 1000 RR project next week end in Miller to find out what can be done to eliminate items of this nature.

If i had the funds i would get the bmw because its a bike i'm sure i will not see much of, Everyone has the gixxer, 14, busa, I want something that different, even though the headlight scheme is terrible in my opinion, but the output of the bike is what has dragged me to liking it, plus other than that headlight disaster the bike is just as sexy as the next, i'm sure aftermarket parts will cost as well n be hard to find, but look at what u have to spend for all the other bike mods (1000 up to 14) tot put out 183hp, n the bmw does this stock, imagine wit a pipe n pc u lookin at close to 200, i dont know bout yall but i like 200, i'm sure some of u are upset to compare a 1000 engine to a 1352 but the numbers dont lie.

My local dyno usually shows around 165 SAE for a stock 08-up Busa. It showed 170 SAE, stock, for the BMW, and 162 SAE for a 2008 10R. By comparison, my 14 with a Shortmeg and pump fuel made 176 SAE on this same dyno. It is a Dynojet 200...I'm not sure how much of a difference that makes.

To be very clear, I have tons of respect for you and your products, Brock.
However, I remain skeptical (just 'cause that's how I am) as you just confirmed that these are pre-production bikes. I'm not doubting that it's a new standard for liter bikes, never doubting your results, just not sure the production bikes will quite measure up.
Thanks again for all you do!

Hell i wouldnt know either shane, i was just goin by the 183 that was stated earlier, the bike does look good though except the front, lol, its like those side fins on a 14, they gotta go, lol, but u also lookin at a 1340 busa to a 998 BMW, n boy does that 10r number looks good, the recent superstreetbike mag compared the 04 10 wit the new 10 n said the 04 still hangs wit the newer bike cause it makes more power midrange n falls just short at peak, my cousin has a 240 kit on his 04 zx10 n that thing flies, lol, n he only has a slip on n no pc3, but at our size, me being 6'3" the 1000 class just seemed to little, but after riding a few that was lowered n stretched i would get one, Theres 2 06/blk/grey 1000 that are tearing butts up round here!

sounds like a challenge, lol, Wish some 14 would come here n put it down, i'm sick of the 1000's gettting all the glory, we got a busa running 8.60, at US13 Dragway in Delmar. If i'm not mistaking he got a big motor n sprayin it. I dont care what size motor u got but if u drive the bike to the track n run low 9's or high 8's n drive the thing back home, u got a NICE BIKE!!!!!!!

Fastest is a term used loosely in the motorcycle world. . Fastest around a track? Fastest in the 1/8th, 1/4 or first to cross the line and win? fastest to 60mph?, 100, top speed, speed limited, rev limited or terminal wind drag limited top speed?. IMO the beamer is not the fastest, not in every day stock trim in real world street racing, yeah if you strech it, gear it, lower it, exhaust system ect.. But then you have turned a awsome track bike into a drag bike that has a weak clutch and a front end that looks like Sloth from the goonies. What Brock has done with the bmw is awsome, but why it is starting so much fuss? Once you do those kind of mods you cant compare it to any other bike but one that has those same type of mods.
Id like to see a stock (other than removing the speed limiter) gen 1 and gen 2 zx14 top speed test by a good rider, as compairing top speed of these bikes is not a valid test because of electronic speed limiting.

Brock’s Performance to announce a new team rider to campaign a BMW S 1000 RR in AMA Dragbike SuperSport competition for the remainder of the 2010 season. The same rider will also test components on a nitrous-assisted S 1000 RR in the Real Street class later in the season. Any guesses?
I guess we will see in the real world on a level playing field very soon...

When are you gonna announce who it is?
And yes I do believe the S1000RR is faster than the ZX14 in the real world.

I'm sure it will be very very fast when Brock gets done with it ..Hell it was fast with the stock motor as we all saw ... Anything Brock touches goes fast .. Put a top jockey on it and get the hell out of the way ...
Now with that said 99% of the guys out there are not Brock and don't have the skills to ride the bike like JT , Rickey or Shine .. Face it these guys make it look easy and it NOT !! So at AMA the bike is going to kick some ass for sure ...But the avg guy with a BMW, stockwheel base and a pipe and tune is not going to be fast at the track..We have all seen guys on liter bikes show up at the track and run 11s or 12s .. Avg guys that buy a bmw will be no different than the other liter bike guys .. It's one thing to have a ton of power on tap , but it's a hole different story to using all that power ..

It's still a small little 1000. Low on torque and not a all day Sport Touring Bike.
It's a Race Bike with lights. Too small and cramped for us over 6' feet tall riders that are not 20 anymore.
Too few dealers, and even fewer BMW mechanics that have the experience to deal with
all the new electrics, etc. Parts..... hope you have deep pockets. Welcome to the Real World of street riding. I'll keep my 14.
