having had an S1000RR for the weekend (while the KGT was on one of its trips to the naughty step) I can vouch they're the most loony thing I've ever been on the road on!

Having owned an S1 for a couple of years plus a CB1000R and having just tried out the new Yam MT 09 (which was very good) all I can say is yes please to the BMW
Hope it's not de-tuned like the Honda, just need to grow a neck like Desperate Dan
