The 2015 BMW S1000RR is the superbike’s biggest overhaul since the original version came out in 2010.

It has a staggering 199bhp (so easily breaking the magic 200bhp with a race exhaust), more torque, 4kg less weight, a new frame, steering geometry, styling and even cruise control.

It has new electronics, including an extra riding mode, launch control and a pitlane speed limiter.

Get the best of biking EVERY day…

Well I got the first like so that’s an achievement 

Chris Carter says:

On the power side it won’t touch the h2. Might handle better in the curves
and that’s it between the two. But on shocking point the h2 could be mean
as well on the handling side.

I don’t really count the h2 though. So in its place the new rsv4 will beat
the other 2015 models easy. 

mavxr says:

Bmw, if you would like to send me one for free I’d happily “advertise” it
for you.

CycleCruza says:

Honda needs to hurry up and get a monster fireblade out already to put
these other liter bikes in check. Lord knows they have the budget and
technology to do it, ask Marquez. Just borrow the tech from the Repsol
MotoGP bike like yamaha said they borrowed a wee bit from their M1 MotoGP
bike with the new 2015 R1. Rossi and Lorenzo’s yamahas have been seeing
nothing but Marquez’s ass all season. haha 

Thunderous71 says:

Now if I write a supper nice letter to Santa do you think I have any chance
of getting one for Christmas?

The Gentleman Biker says:

I can’t imagine such a savage bike being easy to ride. I expect it would
buck me off into the bushes while it carries on to growl at children.

Tyler James says:

I can see this winters youtube now… lit up with comparisons galore of:
Kawi H2
S1000RR
Yamaha’s R1

Who’s gonna be the new stock king?!

Can’t wait!!

dave80h says:

Still not sure about the looks, can’t wait to see it in the flesh. Great
video as normal Mr Neeves. 

inlineschool says:

So its a bat shit crazy fast bike with lots of clever stuff to slow it
down? Should there be a S800RR for people that are not just after the big
numbers like the panigale?

funkyrimpler says:

at least when youre riding it you cant see how fkn ugly the thing is.

Themayseffect says:

giving those other literbikes the stink eye -_0 ….

Alfa Suzuki says:

i think h2 is not a moto to race is just a urgent and panic thing to trie
to rise the marquet bicause other brand motocycles expecial because bmw
even bmw is more heavy because a very strong engine to last more milles is
one of the havyests engines of 1000 cc it make a good power and can compit
the same, the turbo thing is just and panic thing and is hugly, no fairing
under the engine and the price what will bi? and just see the bike i not
that is not an race good bike just to go on the strets and say lock i have
a h2 like other crap bikes like zx 14, panic kawa because hayabusa. that is
not because i have a bmw s1000rr but i think is the true, the bike ho can
compite and maybe better is the rsv4 our the 1299 but againe more cc’s is
not fare and other things because the italian expencive parts and more. for
my in this moment the best bikes in the worl is bmw or aprillia, and i like
suzuki and honda to, honda is a very good machine no doubgt. sory my
english maybe you anderstand.

greeek777 says:

Michael you need to grow up! Your just scared that the R1 may just beat
your bmw and then you will have to buy another bike. You are not a
sportbike lover. People that ride, likes all super bikes and it does not
matter what kind of bike they ride. There will allways be better bikes year
by year. But your attitude sucks and does not need to be on a sport bike!!
You make us real riders look bad. Bmw is a great bike just like all of the
sportbikes. Every manufacture works hard on there product so there is no
need to say the R1 is Garbage but then again look who i am talking to. As
for wining a race with me, i don’t know you and you don’t know me, but one
thing i do know is the ones that talk shit can’t ride for shit. That’s a
proven fact! Everone knows that. Now next time you ride at least wave to
your other sportbike riders maybe one day you may need some help. 

Mauro Stocchero Pinto says:

All the brands compites for the best numbers, but the best bike, is that
can you ride and grow up whit him. The technology is for have a easiest
ride. Take a bike and if you feel comfort fast and secure. That is your
bike. For me Aprilia Rsv4 Is the King. Technology, comfort, fast, designs,
pedigree, secure. 

jdclover says:

I have a heavily tuned Yamaha FS1E and it doesn’t have any electronic
riding aids at all!

mintpaul says:

2015 year of the sports bike

Buzz Shiteyear says:

What an AWESOME soundtrack! Thanks so much for not ruining this video with
vile disco music.
So, Neevesy, is it twice the bike my 2010 S1000RR is? Because it’s going to
be twice the money.

I am Iron Man says:

Still like your HP4 Competition +War Machine Motovlogs? Or is it not the
same now that a standard S1000RR is better?

Dom Master says:

WHO CARES!!! still ugly as fuck!!! always have been

JDavez Urib says:

I’m just falling in love for this babe. Is my dream, nothing else matters

AtheistVendetta says:

Looks interesting, but how does it compare to the R1? That’s the one I’m
leaning towards. 2015 will be a special year!

Michael Rivera says:

Hail bmw s1000rr
Hail to german engineering
Hail to king of super bikes
The h2 looks like it weighs 700 pounds
The r1 looks like garbage, makes me want to throw it in a heated oven
Hail bmw



pilot7180 says:

Ha I spotted Nate Kern in that video. Too cool! He’s one of the best riders
I know personally and it’s such a pleasure to watch him race. The guy can
make anything with 2 wheels look and run fast.

nobodyIIIV says:

I like your videos. I really do! But after years on youtube now… why the
hell is it so hard to get rid of those terrible windnoises while the
presenter speaks? please get your self a quallity mic with a “dead kitty”.
PLEASE!!!

The Northern Vlogger says:

I just jizzed!

craig black says:

wish bmw would stick with the same size headlights on both sides 

bazemk5111979 says:

H2 is not super sport class, its hyper bike class like the Hayabusa, zx14
etc etc etc

asdf898 says:

I remember about 8-10 years ago BMW said they wouldn’t jump on the sports
bike band wagon and join the competition in the litre bike world. Doing the
opposite, and replacing the CEO was one of the best decisions they ever
made.

Luigi Battista says:

Panigale 1299

Radius740 says:

I want to see it against motogp bike. It would be intresting.

machineguntongue says:

The most wicked and most “tame” and versatile of sport bikes. . Amazing.

Under tail video looked great as well.

So good to see BMW keep on improving these bikes and setting the bar so
high. Possible golden age of 1000cc class, if not already here, pending
other Manu releases. 

Karsten NewGuy says:

Amazing bike. Nothing else to say…..

krasp28 says:

The video footage of the left foot makes it look like the bike has a GP
shift pattern? 

Anders Eriksson says:

Thanks, excellent first ride video!

Air Jordan says:

Where can i buy this helmet?

ptaraschi says:

not a single mention or comment on the clutchless downshift system?!?!

NICEMUSIK PLAYLIST says:

GREAT BIKE

Bikes & Drones says:

I started to watch this a couple of days ago. Then it went private, now its
back, what happened.

36Rza says:

Only thing I dislike is the sub frame, it shows under the rear panel and it
looks like something from an sv650, square and cheap looking.
