BMW 1000rr .. The ride i didn't get ...
It was set up by Brock and BMW for me to ride the New BMW 1000rr this weekend at BMP .. I got a chance to look over the New BMW 1000rr , it was set up with all Brocks goodies including BST wheels ... It has no air shifter but does have the factory quick shifter ... I talked with the BMW Reps and they told me it has run in the 8.50s with a pro riding the bike .. I saw the BMW make a few passes and let me tell you it is fast for sure .. It was very hard for me to turn down a ride on that bike .. I was really looking forward to riding it but with my shoulder screwed up i just didn't feel safe .. Roys bike Friday night left me in to much pain to ride the BMW .. I have to thank Brock and BMW for the offer . The BMW Rep said when i feel better he would let me have another chance to ride the bike ...

I never have figured out how to make a link work but here's BMW's Press Release from yesterday on Brocks bikes.
I wish you were healthy Lee, I'd say you'd make a good showing on the bike.
Hope you get better soon.
