We have a fresh video review of the BMW S1000RR superbike facing off against its tough competition in the South of France. Brought to you by MCN, a strong authority in motorcycle news and reviews, this video shows the dominance of BMW’s new superbike.
The S1000RR is the epitome of performance motorcycling. With 193 hp, it boasts the highest output 1000 cc engine on the market. In fact, if we applied the S1000RR’s specific output to one of BMW’s 3 liter engines (lets say the one in the new 1 series based ///M car – the ///M135 if you will), we would arrive at an output of 579 hp. Of course, the operational demands of BMW’s automotive products differ greatly from their motorrad products, and this is not a true to life engine output comparison – but still, it’s an interesting figure! With BMW’s extensive F1 engine design and other racing experience, the sky is truly the limit for the Bavarian Auto maker.

We look forward to further group tests from other journals, but for now, please enjoy the following video by MCN.
