Welcome to the forum Rziza,all good stuff, its a pity the guy doing the filming didn't do a shot of the bikes before the race as to the general public that could be any 2 bikes racing.

Nice to see people getting the most from their dealer loan bike!

An opportunistic race; as was wondering why on earth someone would pair a busa with the RR - not really an obvious match! One of them (assuming the RR) makes just an awesome sound.

Thanks for the link

I was doing the filming using my still camera, the battery was almost dead so i had to keep whatever power is left for the result, i'll make sure to charge it fully when we test it against the RSV4R, the dealer is getting a demo also

the reason we paired it against the Busa is because our friends insisted that the Busa is fastest street bike, and we wanted to crown the RR as the fastest

And that screaming sound is the RR sound, its really strange how we could not hear either the Busa or the GSXR1000 even thou they both had Akrapovice systems

The S1000 makes beautiful music!

As Fido said...

... manufacturers' suggested procedures basically, run the engines up/down the suggested RPM range, loading and unloading without ever lugging the motors. Thereafter I'd gradually increase RPM's to redline over next 1000mi...

Seems the guy of the video didn't read this? ...

I agree, the S1000RR engine sounds great!

In Cordoba dealer there are no S1000RR for deliver yet, I don't Know in Buenos Aires, but I think is the same.

Good things must wait a while

Indeed....they make it look so easy though.

I road the S1000RR a couple weeks ago; wonderful ergos, brakes!!, slick gearbox and engine. But to compare an S-bike with 193hp and 100lb lighter than the 'Busa with 197hp is a bit ridiculous. Apples vs. oranges. I'm one who prefers big, usable torque down low and progressively strong right through midrange so still very pleased with the K13S.

here is the same RR with an M5 and RSV4 Factory http://www.kuwaitmoto.com/2011/05/10/ive-got-the-power/
